Too my two NZ experts, fantastic last blog and i can't wait to hear all about Fiji! I'm glad you've had an amazing time in NZ and with family :) you're going to have to catch me up when you're backon the specific details of that horse-ride and the stories about your mum when she was little ;) love you both xxxxxxxxxxxxx

smashing blog once again. i know you will be sad to leave nz, you have had a real life altering experience. dont be too sad, you can save up and go again later on in life!!! now enjoy the sunshine and relax. see ya soon xxxx

Have just read your wonderful last blog from NZ and looked at the new photos- there's some real crackers there. dad has already chosen one for his new screensaver! It all looks so stunningly beautiful- i'll bet you're gutted to be leaving. Still Fiji will be a whole new adventure and probably a little less frenetic than all the adrenaline activities you've been doing over the last 2 months. Enjoy some sunshine and all that 'pacific beach' beauty. Keep in touch if you are able. GOOD LUCK and I LOVE YOU BOTH. Ma XX

Not too sure my dad would appreciate digby getting in it. Big kisses to emily and WE LOVE YOU LOADS XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

once again another terrific blog. would so have loved to see that sunrise. it is so descriptive that us in the uk are almost there with you. its great to see the wild harpers are as barmy as ever. thank you for looking after my girls. sadly we went out of the world cup with a whimper, (we were bloody rubbish) still there is always next time. keep on trukin girls.

Hello girls. i am writing this entry from your house. Dad is out walkiing the dogs and mum is in the pool relaxing & enjoying the glorious weather we are having at the moment. I would have loved the rabbit farm, all those cute bunnies!!! The horse riding sounded amazing, cant wait to the see the pics. Pretty impressive the guy offered you both jobs!!!! Still thinking of you every day, all my love xxxxxx

I AM SO JEALOUS!!!! That horse-riding sounds amazing! The best way to view beautiful country is by horse-back of course! So glad you're having the time of your lives :D love you both, stay safe and PHOTOS soon please! xlovex

What a great account, Stef- i almost felt i was there with you. The horseriding sounds fabulous-an experience you'll never forget, which is what it's all about. I hope you didn't stay up to watch the England match- rubbish or what?Although i like the sound of the hot tub by the beach... I have had the bandages taken off my knees now and they are healing well so i will be able to go in our pool soon, though it is hardly a hot tub! However it was the hottest day here today so dad's been in it a lot- i'm very envious, Digbys been in too... i looking forward to next batch of photo,s (hint hint), sending you lots of love, ma x

Aw glad to hear your slowly on the bend mum :) As you'll see from the most recent blog, the horse-riding was amazing! It's gorgeous up here in the East As and so chilled. We'll try and get some pics up soon. Love you!! xx

hey you- how was the horseriding along the beach? Have you done any kiwi fruit picking\packing whilst in the East As bit- i've just eaten one and thought of you. I think of you all the time actually and often wonder what mischief you're getting up to now.... My knees are slowly getting better and i'm pretty good on the old cruthes now. Dad and i went for a walk this evening and i managed 100 yards- tomorrow 200 and so it will build up gradually- by the time you get home i'll be running the marathon! Keep safe my darlings, looking forward to the next exciting blog, all my love, ma xxxxx
