The journey continues

Greetings all, hope this posting finds you all fit and well, and for those back home, enjoying the best of British Winter. We can't be too smug now, the weather is definitely getting cooler here, not much of the NZ summer left! We may have to invest in a fan heater for the Camper! We have returned to Christchurch after Canon contacted us to confirm the camcorder was repaired and ready for collection. Tomorrow we head back to the West Coast to continue where we left off. We plan to stop off at Arthur's Pass and climb a mountain or two, and video some Kea, those curious Alpine parrots. We have just completed a tour of the Alpine Pacific triangle, North of Christchurch. Most of our newly uploaded photos are from that trip. We particularly enjoyed Hanmer Springs, with its thermal pools, and glorious mountains and pine forests. We did plenty of mountain bike trails, a quad bike trek, and even a spot of crazy golf for Heidi. Supplies were running low by the time we returned to Christchurch, so it was nice to hit the malls and stock up. That's all for now folks, another update to follow soon...
