WOW you stayed in a lighthouse?! Did you have it all to yourselves? That sounds amazing! Are you still stopping in Sydney on your way home? Let us know as soon as you're back and over your jet lag - we can't wait to hear all about your adventures in person! xx

Hi Both, Just spent an hour on Sun AM reading your Blog and photowatching. Well done, you have seen and done so much. Enjoy your last few days. Much love Aunty Sandy and Richard

I'm pleased to see from your photos that you discovered the amazing Tango's in Wanaka! We practically lived there when our van broke down, the smoothies are great! Hope you managed to go paragliding! Sorry that skiing wasn't so great, but at least you gave it a go! And those pesky Spanish tourists wrecking your Doubtful Sound experiences, aghh!!!xx

Hey guys loving the blogs.

Did you go on the louge at Queens Town?

Have you come across those steak burgers, i'm starting to wonder if i imagined it.

Nick

Can we have some more action photos, when you have seen one lake/sunset/sun rise/mountain you have seen them all! Your mum has now kicked me!

Richard

We all turn into our Mums - even the men!

Hey guys! How are your travels going? I'm itching to read another blog! Have you been skiing yet? James said he read on facebook that you've experienced the joy of eating a ferg burger! YUM! So I take it you're somewhere around Queenstown at the moment. Drive safely (I always say that - I'm turning into my mum!) xx

Hi

Charlotte is going down to dads today and Nana and I are visiting Dawn at home. Nana made some cup cakes with icing on to take with us. I LOVE your photos, they are wonderful. Looking forward to the whale pics. Charlotte says Hello!

Mum

Hi there

Am so glad that you met up with Luke and Jen. I was perusing the fridge and saw you'd be around Wellington. I hope they were well. Flat is still standing and am looking after it :-) I love your fish btw, it's like having real pets, they perk up every time we get home :-)

Yey! You've made it down to the South Island! I bet you're loving the scenery, it's so beautiful down there. Everything looks so amazing with all the snow, so pretty! And that cabin sounded good! Your photos of the seals in Kaikoura are great! Glad you're enjoying yourselves, drive safely xx

Wonderful photos! I love the idea of Hot Water Beach. We are going to China Blue today so Nana can paint you a sugar bowl. Still visiting Dawn and will keep you up to date on that. Directed the chorus on Monday again. I am getting good at waving my arms about now and Andy has finished Chris and Dominika's photos. He will ring them tomorrow. Give our love to Napier - we did a great town trail there so much history and beautiful buildings.

Lots of love and hugs

Mum

XXXXXXX

The word "Jealous" doesn't quite cut it - those views - wow! Making me want to go travelling right now!! Looks like you are both having a good time. Molly looks quite comfy. Heading to Devon and then Cornwall tomorrow - can't wait to have some time off - shame you are both on other-side of world! Nice to keep up-to-date with blog tho.

Booked in for 10k race (Sept) and 1/2 marathon (Oct), so training properly now & no injuries yet (touch wood!)

Look forward to hearing your next blog ad more stunning photos.
