We are now green with envy, as you talk about some of the places we visited nearly two years ago! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. Drive carefully and don't knock over too many possums. Although the locals might disagree. One import from Aus they could do without! Love to you both J&P xx

G, Day to you both Sounds like you are having a ball hope it continues in New Zealand Les have you found Tommy Emmanul yet or the aussie guitar shops

We are so jealous, it sounds like you having a fabulous time. You are certainly fitting a lot in, pace yourselves or you're be shattered by New Zealand!

Carry on enjoying yourselves!
