Hello again!
Nice surprise to get your card, thank you. Nanna Watson was pleased to get hers as well!
Congrats to Chris & Tracey!
What an exciting time you have had. Can't believe you BOTH did a bungee jump!!!!!! So impressed, and Shot-over Jet as well!.
Have just watched travel programme from Queenstown - bungee jump & jet trip, what a coincidence!
Enjoyed your photos - especially the socks & sandals Ha! Ha!
We are all ok here, but envying you the weather. It;s rain & high winds at moment & promise of a cold snap at weekend! So lots to look forward to.
Can't believe your time is running out on NZ,but you still have nice places to go.
Will say cheerio now, keep living it up.
Lots of love

Hi guys.
Great to skype the other day - pictures were better than we get when we're talking to Wangford - must be the climate!
Got the pixs of the Bungy jump and the jet boat (looked very tame compared to the bungy - loved to know what language you both were talking in when you jumped off the bridge!)
Congrats to Tracey and Chris - lovely news!
Nupe was getting thirsty the other day - so I took him out for a drink - he's still behaving himself - though I think he'd rather have a runout with you.
Started to have a big clear out ready for the decorating session - didn't get to throw too much out as mum is determined to do a car boot - that'll be a laugh - should happen anytime between now and when the cows come home - if you get my meaning!
Everyone here sends their luv.
Glad you're still enjoying yourselves - keep the diary going and the pix too (they're great).
Luv u both loads.
Talk to you soon,
mum and dad
Dad & Sonia

Hi our Lovelies!
Just been looking at all your pics - what an amazing time you have been having - one minute its stunning beaches the next its glaciers!! Got your text today about the bungee - you crazy chicks! I understand your Dad was releived you did not tell him before you did it - I reckon he would have tried to talk you out of it!
Your Dad knows our news by the way - Sonja saw him today and had to tell him so she apologises if she stole your thunder! I guess everyone else may be guessing what I am talking about - do you think I should let everyone know? Will let you decide and as its your journey you can tell!
Your xmas dinner looked lovely by the way - and the socks and sandals - wicked!
Cant believe you are already half way through - enjoy every minute and I know its hard but think of us back here in the wind and cold!
Miss you very day,
all our love. T&C.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

hello, just thought i would have a catch up with you. Very impressed with the pictures so far you have seen and experienced some pretty amazing stuff. Not a bit jealous though lol! I sold a car to a lady this week who spent 18 years living in Fiji, Dont know if thats still off the cards or not but she did say how lovely it was. Im off to Loughborough again in a couple of weeks to do a 'True Blue' event which is basically driving cars around the track all day (right up my street) other than that got no real news for ya im afraid. Paul: If you need any ammo for Dad Liverpool lost 3-1 to Arsenal on Saturday at Anfied and then lost again 6-3 last night at Anfield again, keep that up your sleeve mate.
Say hello to the Betney's for us and send our love.
Speak to you soon.
Lots of love x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
Amanda & Dan
Hello to you both!
Ive just been catching up with all your photos in my lunch break today and thought I would leave you a little message, (Dan never lets me type when we leave you messages from home, lol!!)
Your pictures are fantastic and its clear to see how much you are enjoying your whole experience. Although Dan would probably never say it very much Zoe but he is missing his big sister very much, trust me!!
Keep making lots of memories,
Lots of Love to you both,
Amanda and Dan x x x x
