What a great adventure for you and Stuart. You look so well - and a very well deserved holiday.
See you've still got a good swing on the golf course.
Look forward to catching up over coffee - or maybe a hot toddy!

Thank you Julie! It's such a beautiful country you can't not love it - there always seems to be an amazing view around every corner. xx

Can't believe you didn't do the luge in Queenstown! I had a go, but did have the brake on permanently all the way down!!! Mark Fahy did a 2 man glide thing off the mountain and the guy before him fell over and nearly plummeted straight down the mountain! Don't think that helped Mark's nerves! So glad you are having a great time. Milford sound is great too. We did a traditional Maori evening in Queenstown too - which was very funny. The guys learnt to do a rude version of the Haka! Sam x

Hi Sam! Jane and mark's BBQ was fabulous - lots of people asked to be remembered to you, including the mischievous (Irish) Mas/z!. I can see you and your Mark being very happy here .. See you in a couple of weeks
Much love Wee xx.
Samantha Rothwell
Hope you managed to survive the street BBQ - I know from previous experience how dangerous those things can be!!! Sam x
Tracey
Thank you Sam! I'm hoping we will get to meet up with Jane in a couple of days time. Stuart had me set the alarm for the very early hours of the morning to try and watch the England-Scotland match only to find it wasn't on the TV channels we had in our room! Love to you and Mark. Wee xx xxx
Samantha Rothwell
Wow - looks like you are both having a truly memorable trip. Jane texted me yesterday to say she had heard from you and also to let me know that England had won the 7's - yeah! Also, you can let Stuart know England beat Scotland in the 6 Nations. A bit hairy at the start with quite a few handling errors, but all came good in the end! Glad you are relaxing. Sam xxx
Tracey
Not quite got the hang of this message board but just wanted to thank you all for your wonderful messages. 10 days into the trip and I'm just about relaxed! First time in ages. Thank you so much for following the blog - will try and keep it interesting and get better at uploading the photos!
Love to all.

Hello Aunty Tracey and Uncle Stu,
Me, mummy and daddy are enjoying following you both on your travels. Like Uncle Stuart, daddy was at his happiest drooling over the chocolate cake, and we can't wait to test some baking by Uncle Stuart, thats his retirement sorted!!?? We are so excited for you both and I think we should have organised for me to come with you, after all I think I can fly free until I am 2, maybe next time. Missing you lots, be safe, all our love Maisie, Lou and Jason xxx
Jane Fahy
