Ignore that last one..put it dopwn to drunken access to the internet!!

So this is us leaving the south island today, ferry to Wellington and who knows what else..we're having a bugger of a time trying to book a car for the north island so not sure if we're going to make it to Richard's 30th with Mark and Majella in some place north of Rotorua or if we have to hang around Wellington til one comes available..I was too busy enjoying the beers in the sun last night to listen too closely to what our final plan is ..oooops!!!

You should have seen the nick of the caravan we slept in last night, there was no accomodation anywhere near Nelson yesterday so we finally got this lady to give us a cabin and a caravan..thinking Doug and I have never slept in a caravan I quickly jumped in and told MnM that they could have the cabin...OH MY GOD WHAT A MISTAKE..I dont think Ive ever seen as bad a caravan..and Ive stayed in many in my youth!! Luckily to say a goods night sleep was organised by enjoying many a beer and lots of wine!!

so see ya later to the south island and cant wait for the north..xx
