Nanci Sounds like you really enjoyed the animals...what a fabulous trip...!! Can't wait for the pictures. Did you get any of the animals?

Rau Hi Cris - It sounds like a great time. Too bad about the sky diving. Great pictures! BTW, I saw Rosie trying to play with Rufus on the patio yesterday! Tought you should know. Rau

Erika Hi Cristina- It sounds so wonderful. Enjoy every minute (even while doing your laundry). Be sure to find some sunscreen, take it from a burn easily kind of gal. If the sun does get the better of you or Adam buy some aloe. Erika

Nanci WOW!!!!! Such adventures...what amazing things you've done and seen...how will you ever be able to come back to the A1198???

Michele Hi Cris - so exiting!!!! I'm here right now spending yet another day in the Language Centre....why didn't I do all this when I was young???? And you met Nic - how amazing!! Seems like there is no chance of you getting sunburnt in NZ - but watch out for OZ - espcially Adam! Bye for now. Michele

nic hi cirs, worked out we weill be in nelson same time as you guys, how did you find hte blackwater rafting?? i loved it! and the crossing??? pretty hard work heh

Michele Hi Cris - that jumping off waterfalls thing sounds fantastic!!!! Seems like you are doing some crazy stuff - and don't worry about not having anything to remember some of it by - those pictures will always be there in your head. Enjoy everything!!! Michele

nicola Hey cristina, its nic, I loved the cape reigna day trip was awesome, and phia is so beautifull! The auckland base hostel is the worst i stayed in...... other beautifull places on the way down the north island are cathedral cove, absoutley stunning!!!! and rotorua is really cool, zorbing and rafting are both great there. And the capital wellington is a really funky city we love it, been here nine nights. If your not really feeling the partying mood i would sugesst staying clear of base hostels ( besides they are the most expensive and usually the most unclean!). Any way we are heading fot the south island tomorrow, but keep in contact and maybe youll catch up with us and we can meet up for dinner or something. Say hi to adam for me x
