Coming to the end of our journey around New Zealand. We've managed to fit in an amazing number of things in just three weeks thanks to my cousin loaning us her car, fondly known as 'the green machine'. We've visited 5 of my cousins, my aunt and several second cousins too! We've been made to feel so welcome - a real home from home.

We've travelled all around the North and South Islands and seen some amazing scenery. Been hiking on glaciers and climbing volcanoes and generally getting lots of fresh air. The weather's been fabulous too, as has the wine, so we're feeling very lucky.

Happy Easter to you all. Hope you get lots of eggs!

Andrea and Julien
