New Zealand, the road trip begins!

We've left South America and are now cruising around New Zealand in a yet-to-be-named campervan. Suggestions on a postcard to:

    Justine, thank you so much! I hope all is well

    Another set of magnificent photos - all I can say is wow, ye are so lucky to be doing what ye are doing - continue to enjoy ! HiAce van is not as knackerish as I initially feared. However when you see entire contents and spectacular carpet etc it makes one wonder!! You could call it Homer or Paleface or Shiela or Haka or Herself - so many possibilities!

    Hi FIONA and ROB, grandma AND celine here...fantastic photos + COMMENTRY! rEADING THE TEACHERS RULES ...NOW I know where I went wrong...broke them all. The van/beast /beauty look smashing..so many options for a name!Mamie's suggestion for the van is "FAIRVAN" I'll have to put my thinking hat on for my contribution. We are going to meet Archie in the next few minutes as Caitlin has arrived home to Mary's - really looking forward to seeing him. I haven't been able to email Loretta in Wellion because my computer is on the blink but will let you know how that pans out. Caitlin says Hi as she eats her favourite SPECIAL k & red berries. Chow to you both for now ...Love G & C XX
