The Excitement Mounts

It's 6 Weeks to Go!

Only 6 weeks until J & I head for Europe via the States and we'll visit family in the UK before collecting a motorhome and heading for places where there be dragons, (or at the very least Swedes).

We decided that it was time for us to do a bit more than work all week and then spend weekends thinking about work, so we decided to take off and see where we end up.

This will be our home for the next 3-4 months before we head back to NZ, (and bring the motorhome with us). Selecting the right model was a major exercise but in the end it came down to a Bolero or an Autotrail and the Bolero won out.

Our first destination after spending a couple of weeks in the UK will be Belgium, where we will catch up briefly with our daughter number 2 who resideth there with Bob the cat but I'm not sure who will be most excited to see us, (probably the cat).


After a brief time in Brussels we'll drive north to Stockholm, via Copenhagen, to meet daughter number 1 and we will spend a few days there before heading to Helsinki by Ferry.


After Helsinki who knows --- you'll have to wait until mid-July to find out!
