I am already planning my week's tour of North Island before I go on to South Island to spend six weeks with my family.
So far, I have planned an itinerary that I hope will take in many of the most beautiful areas, but I am always open to suggestions. I have incorporated the Whanganui River because Jess gave us such a good description.
I will pick up a hire car at Auckland airport and drive to Tauranga. Rotarua and Taupo, then Wanganui, staying one or two nights in each place. I will return the car to Wellington airport and take the ferry to Picton, where my daughter will meet me. Her husband might be the captain!
I am flying with Malaysian Airlines - I used them often when my other daughter lived in Malaysia. I am having an overnight stop each way in Kuala Lumpur, just to break up the 40 hour journey.
I am off to Egypt next month for two week's snorkeling, and in July I am taking my sister on a cruise on the River Moselle. Then I will have to start replenishing my travel fund! Good job I spend so little at home.
Belfast another appalling attack, we need to ask what is driving this.
Soops kitchen, a place of reflection, refuge and at times revelry.
