  3. Hi Ness and Sharon.

    Ness - the Tay St t-shirt was an xmas present from mum. Michelle made the xmas card video. Say hi to the kids for us!

    Sharon - Thank you for your message. Hopefully the weather in Queenstown stayed nice - from the news websites it looked like the Nth Island was a washout on New Years eve. Say hi to Kevin from us. Hopefully see you guys in late feb/early March.

  4. Hi. Nice to catch up with your happenings and more great photos. I had to go back and look for the "Tay St" t-shirt - good spotting Vanessa. Just back from the Mt beach - Mike's sister and 2 daughters are here from Fairlie so Em and I took them over for a swim. Check out this link about an orca rescued at Hahei beach yesterday. http://www.3news.co.nz/Hahei-local-rescues-orca-from-crayfish-pot/tabid/1160/articleID/242123/Default.aspx Mike was diving day before yesterday and came up saying he could hear what sounded like a "whale or something under the water" - would have been the poor orca. Be good to see you in a couple of weeks - safe travels. Hi Michelle - will get to meet you one day (we hope)!!! Love, Sandra. xoxoxo
