Less than 3 weeks to departure

The year officially starts on 10 March when we leave Napier for our first port of call, Los Angeles.  Here we will have our first lesson in keeping sane - purchasing and driving our pick up.  From LA we head to Utah to pick up our home for the next 12 months, a Rockwood Ultra-Lite 5th Wheel, as yet unnamed.  Suggestions welcome.  I was going to put sensible suggestions welcome but that would eliminate half my choices.  Then the fun begins.

In the meantime, to get the blog up and running, here's a few photos showing you what we've been up to in New Zealand the past few weeks.

Wally & Jean on the bike path to Puketapu.  Luckily there was a pub to help with the recovery.

Sue at the start of the Black Bridge - Red Bridge bike path that had no pub to recover at.
