Hello! Well we're now up in Nelson at the top of the South Island. We picked up good ol' Christopher Baggins (our mate from Oz) in Queenstown and then drove (with a car breakdown in the middle of nowhere) to Lake Wanaka where we spent a night so that the car could be fixed. Then we carried on up the West Coast to Fox Glacier where Krissie did a helicopter flight and then straight onto Pukaki to see the blowholes and pancake rocks. The following day we went up t...

Hi there! Well now we have driven across the coast to Queenstown home of the extreme sports! We went there via Nugget Point which is the most Southerly we're going to go because it is SO COLD here! Then we drove to Queenstown and its really strange being in a 'big' town again. We're not planning on doing any extreme stuff except maybe dancing in some clubs....but we'll see.

Yes, once again Team Bucks excelled themselves!!! When we got back to Cairns we went ...

Hey Airlie is the Party Capital of Queensland and we've definately partied!!! We did our Whitsunday Islands trip here on a gorgeous multi million pound boat with lots of crazy Irish boys on board. Whitehaven Beach was lush but our sunglasses were desperately needed because of some serious hangovers...Lucy did her first dive with Nemo and LOVED it, whilst Krissie sat serenely on the beach away from the foot grabbing fish. We partied even more when we got back on...
