Winter is usually the time of year for holiday adverts on the TV, well in New Zealand its no exception. This series from Malaysian Tourism was on when we first arrived. It was hauntingly spiritual and the music still makes my spine tingle when I hear it. Well worth a watch, although I wish the sound was better on this example.

hi
haven't written in ages so thought I'd put something. Don't know what though. hmmmm. Well the past 2 days i have been off school with a cough. At horse riding i had a go driving the quadbike and it was sooooo cool. The other day we took the dogs to the beach, it was a bit cold but still fun. On thursday i have a dentist appointment i think. On friday we had a school trip wen went to the art gallery, museum and botanical gardens for english. We had to write poems and stuff but most of the time we climbed trees and had leaf fights. I think thats all for now, hope everyone is ok x

Family Album 2
We have a new family ablum. This is because we have reached the 500 photo limit in the first one. Please email grant if you want the URL for access for Family 2.
Castle Rock
What a find! We had spotted some pictures on the facebook page of one of Nicki's work colleagues and vowed to make the effort to go for ourselves. It was a great Saturday afternoon, shortly after the first sprinkling of snow for the season. The boulder formation is just outside the Porters Pass ski resort and is about an hours drive away, so we slipped out after dropping Georgia off and finishing the morning grocery shop.
We had a picnic when we arrived of hot soup and crusty bread, with fruit and biscuits and watched teh small groups of people bouldering before we set off. The soup was welcoming as there was a chill to the air out of the sun. We spent a couple of hours there, walking and climbing the different formations. We'll definately go again. Pictures can be found on the Castle Rock Ablum
