Annette, Nogger, Tom , Alice and Charlie Fantastic news of your engagement! Alice wants to know when it's all happening! She never was very patient! Great travel blog-looks like you're having a fab time. We're all jealous accept Tom who never wants to go to Australia because of man-eating sharks and anything poisonous that bites! New Zealand will be much less dangerous unless you go Bungee Jumping! Have fun. xxx
