Default I am here...............

Now where is my little family??

Good morning all, after over 33 hours in transit (four flights) i have arrived in Invercargill, what a dinky little place it is.

My boys don't arrive for a few months, so chin up, be strong and time will fly by, right?????

Hallloooo. Welcome to New Zealand

Hope the journey was good and you are liking what you see of Invercargill so far.

It's a shame when you can't all arrive together. We had that. Himself was here a couple of months before me.
Anyway. "Chin Up. Be strong. Time will fly by." You've always got us lot for the time being



You didn't happen to see Luke&Jo on yer travels did you? They are AWOL

Thank you for all your lovely replies.

Oscar the cat is arrives in 41 days, then Darren arrives in 20 weeks, which can I just say is far to long so we are working out how to get the figure down.

I have been really impressed with the way things have worked out so far, the phone, internet and my bank account all sorted in the same day. No ifs no buts just sorted. Perfect.

I think dinky is good way to describe Invers, I have already spotted a Larma and Emu in the park, I just hope I can get the hang of the traffic system, I seem to spend hours waiting to cross the roads and I can't work out which way the traffic is coming from.

Apart from the missing family, so far so good.

PS any tips on getting the hang of jetlag would be great
