Hello all, This entry is brought to you from Mike's brain, via Lou's approval - Cambridge New Zealand. We are still in residence at the Worth household. We are many meals and tons of tasks in. I have officially driven a tractor before I have driven a car (I even managed to reverse park it, though I was going about -2 miles an hour). Other tasks we have accomplished include picking pumpkins and various types of squash, weeding and yes that is me shovelling up co...

We are currently staying with a couple, Alison and Burton, who run a couple of acres as a biodynamic, fully organic farm. There is also a milking cow (as you can see, I had a go - with modest success), chickens and two little girls - Sacha (3) and Jade (7 months). We have been ha...

We sailed across to Rangitoto Island, a 600 year old volcano, and hiked to the summit. The views were fantastic of the surrounding islands and back across to Auckland harbour. On the way back down we explored lava cav...

Hello all, Welcome to the first entry for Team Lazy International! After 28 hours in the air it's nice to finally have our feet on the ground. We have met nothing but awesome Kiwis since landing. From Immigration onwards they've all been laid back and friendly. The weather outside is around 28 degrees with a light breeze and sunshine. Had lunch on the harbour, watching the boats sail by. Tomorrow's plans are to go to a French Market (Because that's authent...
