New Zealand Part 2

Well we are back in the UK now after a great 2 and half weeks in New Zealand. It was lovely to see everyone and catch up with people we hadn't seen in a long time. We went to Wellington for a weekend to see Greg and Sarah and Paul and took a trip up to Napier to stay in Trish and Alan's apartment for 4 days. It was lovely. The weather was fantastic - winter ha!
Mum celebrated her 50th birthday while we were there and had a great party. Unfortunately just before we left NZ we found out that Simon's stepfather - Tom - passed away suddenly so we were very keen to get back to the UK to support Barbara and the rest of the family. It has been a very sad time for the family and we are still all getting used to the idea.

Anyway, I've put some photos up from the rest of our trip. We'll be back in NZ in February for Fiona and Mike's wedding so not too long to wait.
