Ka-blam-o!!! End of New Zealand pic are now up.  Has taken forever, cos we thought we’d wait for broad band here in our new flat.  Suffice to say we have it now and hey presto, end of NZ pics.

To say we ended in style would be on the money.  Rocking up at our 5 star hotel, beard on, surf board under one arm, nancy under the other, shouting in our bestest English accents to hurry up the concierge with the rest of our stuff.  Nance then spent the next 3 hrs in a bath, before we hit the free drinks lounge.

Anyways, all home and dry now.  Moved into new place as well.  Will no doubt pop some pics of it up when we’re all un packed.

First of all, thanks for all you warm congratulations for our engagement.  Suffice to say, Nance has now fully recovered from both traumatic experiences (jumping from plane and 5am Sunrise) and is doing well.     

So onto the last week.  Just give you a little insight to the pictures.  Firstly is Waitmo Cave where we did a spot of pot holing.  This basically entails you going deep under ground, squeezing through caves and seeing hundreds upon hundreds of glow worms.  Then climb your way out to surface.

Following the cave is MOUNT DOOOOOOOOMM!!!!  From lord of the rings.  We saw this from Mt Ruph on our way up it.

The pic of Nance hopping about is hot water beach, and they are not lying.  There is a thermal spring running under it, and if you dig down about 6 or so inches you’ll hit hot hot hot water reaching temperatures around 70 degrees.  You can hire a spade there and create your own spa bath.  Just what you need on a summers day.

After there is the absolutely stunning Cathedral Cove.  Set of the up and coming Narnia film.  We also did some snorkelling there.  Couldn’t move for Snapper.

Bring on the last week (but not too quickly)
