Hey all

Leaving the UK this month to go travelling but won't arrive in Auckland until 28 February so thought I would add myself to the February list.

Feeling excited and terrified at the same time!! Is that normal?!?!

See you soon!

EEK, I know, can't decide if I'm excited or stressed! Too much to organise.
All this cleaning and packing malarky is hard work....

awsome

Leaving Wales, UK, February 5th 2012 and flying from Heathrow February 6th. Flying via kuala lumpur and arriving at Auckland on February 8th February. A few days in Auckland before flying down to Welcome Bay, Tauranga on the 10th February.

Getting emotional now!! So exciting though. Can't wait just to get there & start the settling in process :-)

Getting very close for Awsome & Moonspinning now

Enjoy your last few days in the UK. Do a bit of last minute shopping & if it all starts getting too much my advice is

moonspinning

SOOOO EXCITED!!!
Am gathering documents to bring in hand luggage and trying to decide what needs to come with us, not on the boat. Will be having a few large G'n'Ts afterwards.... partly to empty the booze cupboard before going!!

awsome

Thanks, Vitalstatistix. Still quite stressful here, as we are still finishing some last minute work to our rental property!! Good news is, sold the car yesterday and rented the house on same day - yipeee. Can't wait till the weekend, so we can finally relax.
