Hello everyone, This will be a very short message - I'm short of time, but I'm here in Kerikeri in NZ north Island. I'm riding 2-3 horses a day, swimming with them in a river, enjoying my time here. The lady I'm staying with has a Bayliner and we go out on the water whenever we can. The Bay of Islands area is beautiful and the scenery is just superb.

I am planning to travel south on the North Island for a while then explore the South Island before heading to Samoa. The people here are very friendly, trying to help out when they can and everything working (especially the traffic!) is a wonderful change to India!

Sorry that's all I have time for now, I'll uploads photos when I can.
