We've arrived


After another long flight we arrived late last night in Auckland. We are all feeling a bit strange, but the children have coped with their sleep deprivation very well.


We are now the proud temporary owners of a red hire car, and our rented house has a lovely back garden (see pics).

We have also made the happy discovery that it is a bank holiday weekend, so no work for Richard on Monday. The weather is warm and sunny, and set to get warmer over the next few days, so we might be taking a trip out tomorrow.

  1. Well done, Catherine, you made it! The garden looks lovely and the sun is shining so you can all be out in it, hooray! and what a treat to have an extra day's settling in time for Richard. Happy 1st weekend, love Lorna.

  4. Well done on finally arriving in NZ! It must have been a welcome relief after Singapore humidity. Hope you are enjoying the new sights and sounds already and your lovely pad starts to feel like home. We're only a tiny bit jealous..... love Sarah & Gray (Alice, Olly and Hettie xxx)
