Hi - Thanks for the Mother's Day phone call. The last postcard entry sounds like your trip is even more exciting than our conversation made it sound. You guys are having some great adventures. Dad called JUJU to let her know that we had heard from you. She was happy. Dad got to use his box scraper after we hung up. The drive is a little better but needs a few more passes. Have fun in Auckland,NZ and Fiji but stay safe. Love to you both.

Hello Kate & Rob I'm at Ron & Donna's For Mother's Day dinner & enjoying your travel pictures. They are all wonderful & interesting. It is a great way for me to see the world. Never traveled when I was young so travel all you can while you can. Stay safe & I will be thinking about you two. Thankyou for the postcard. Love Grandma

Looked at pictures before bed tonight. Bondi Beach made me think of the Cape and Pier. There are a lot of surfers both places also. The buildings nearest the shore are gone now because of the hurricnes. Your making me homesick. Ada

Great to see the pics.!
Funny, there wern't any flies around me when I was at Ayers Rock.
Glad you made it to Cairns. Isn't the reef unbelievable!!!!
Hope all is well.
Be safe. Will be happy to see all the pictures when you get back.
Peace,
Bob

Hi guys - I am a colleague of Kate's Dad and was just at a conference with him in Grand Rapids last week where he told me about your trip. Am turning green with envy looking at all these piccies - good for you taking time out to do this! Hope you don't mind - I had one quick question about Thailand - my husband and I are looking at visiting in July and wondered if you had heard while you were there how it is to visit Phuket and Krabi now post-Tsunami? We wanted to give our tourist $$s where they are needed plus Krabi is a rock climbing mecca apparently (hubby's latest hobby). Do enjoy the rest of your travels - I am VERY jealous! Katja

Hello Rob and Kate,just been looking at your photos on the site,feel a little bit jelous that your both traveling to all these places that that me and sharon want to visit and you both have done it in four months.At least we can find out which places are worth visiting and which are not.Oz looks fantastic and we will definitely be going there the summer after our wedding,but i think we will be stopping in hotels as opposed to a camper van,even though i bet is was intresting and far more convenient to get to see all these places.
Just got back from our Marks stag weekend in Magaluf,there were 11 of us so as you can imagine it was a laugh and plenty of late nights.I have finished for the season now and have ten weeks off so gonna try and improve my golf and get cracking on Albert Rd.Im gonna get going now cos it has already taken me ages writing this as i only use the computer for ebay and house hunting normally.Take care and speak to you both later,Ryan.

Hi - I am subbing in the sixth grade today and they are studying Ox land so I have given out your website address. Don't be surprised if you start getting messages from people you have never heard from. Love, MOM

Spent awhile today looking at pictures and getting caught up on your travels. Wish I could see it in person! it looks warmer there than here. Just 43 today. Management turned off heat last week then it turned cold again. Apartment only in low 60s. Baking bread to heat up place. Would give you some if close by. Maybe I can send over puter. Love Ada

Lovely speaking to you, before your flight to NZ. Hope you had a good journey, and have settled into the hotel until you collect your next deluxe(!) camper van.
Everybody OK here at home, weather is good and its Bank Holiday on Monday.
Enjoyed looking at the pics, pity you didn't get any of Ken & Linda. Im glad you have updated the website, missed not seeing your travels.
NZ is meant to be so green and very different to Oz, so this will be another adventure. Do take care of yourselves, and keep safe.
Love and miss you loads!
