Hello

Hi folks,

My first go at this, so see what happens. I'm a bit unsure of whether I should be doing this. Some people have said its a wee bit nurdish whilst others say yeah do it. So if you want to read it go ahead, if not, well don't bother.

Have just had my first real holiday here in NZ. Did a trip round the south island with Kev and Sarah. I met them up at Chch Airport and we visited the following places:

Lake Tekapo, Milford Sound, Te Anau, Wanaka, Fox Glacier, Hokatika and then back over Arthur's Pass to Chch.

The weather was really good until we arrived at the west coast, but then to expect sunshine on west coast NZ is like expecting the impossible. Hokitika it just rained solidly, so we were glad to leave that place behind. it seemed such a depressing place.

Kev and Sarah left for the north island and I am now back at work.

A few photos of the trip should hopefully be attached.

Apart from that things are good here, I am in the process of applying for residency. So now back at work saving up for that and other stuff.

I'll try and update this as often as possible. Anyway, all the best and take it easy,
Regards,



Fergus
