The two exhausted travellers arrived this evening to much excitement. Here is a small selection of photos from their trip.

NZ is just gorgeous except for the earthquakes. It must be lovely to have Ben and his mum with you at last. Some moral and practical support! Love, B
Yes absolutely. Ben has to return to Christchurch this evening though poor thing. He'll be back on Friday for good. I have Di all week, hooray!
Wow, Mt Ruapehu looks amazing!
Doesn't it! I'll have to drag the family there for a skiing holiday one year.
I've always thought I'd love to build a house on one of those little inlets in the sounds – boat accessible only, completely secluded, all alone. It'd be my perfect place to home school the kiddiewinks, write, and just generally avoid the world. (Introvert much). Ahhh bliss. Maybe when I win lotto.
Ben took a few photos of some houses just like that in the sounds. They looked very appealing.
