Hello again, Have just arrived in melbourne tonight safe and sound. Gonna do a few trips whilst we're here for the next few days. Going to update some of the pictures on the Qeenstown and 'on the road' albums so keep an eye out after tommorow. Hope everyone back at home is ok, keep posting messages (especially gossip) on everything back home. Happy birthday Jo and Debs.

Hello you two glad to see you are having such a horrible time you lucky people. Sorry its taken so long to write to you, but better late than never. Josh, Beth, and Liam said hello (well waving at the screen) they cant wait to see you back in England. Nice to see all the photos you have done a bit of everything by the looks of things. Happy Birthday Ray for the ( 29th March ) just in case you dont look at the messages that often. Look after each other and see you when you get back.

Hey everyone, we have put a few more photos on however we have loads more to go. Ray got camera happy on his walk up the mountain so there is quite a few and it takes ages to upload. Keep checking back though and they should all be there in the next few days. There will also be more in the old Taupo album.

We are leaving Queenstown tomorrow and stopping at Rangitata for the White Water Rafting which will be cool. Then onto Christchurch for our flight to Oz. See ya soon xxx

Hello everyone, sounds very cold back at home, we will try and send some good weather home cos there's far too much of it over here!!! Still having an excellent time, was in Auckland for a while then travelled up north to the Bay of Islands and the very tip called Cape Reinga.

I tried my hand at sea fishing in the Bay of Islands but wasn't too successfull. Caught a white snapper but it was too small to cook, and also caught a cod (looked more like a catfish) and we couldn't eat that either. Cape reinga was also amazing, we literally stood on the very tip of new zealand where the two sea's (Pacific and Tasman) meet. It looked like a load of comotion with a white line along the middle as though they were crashing into rocks, and the coulor on each side was also different. We also tried sand boarding on these huge 80 metre high sand dunes next to the beach. Hope everything is ok back at home, will post a message again soon.
