Hi NZBee
Yep know exactly how you feel - we go from being exxcited to thinking OMG what have we done and feeling homesick. Happy to meet up with you once you arrive. Give us a shout when it would be good.
Hi jill1420
Give us a shout in January 2008, would be great to meet up with you then. We might actually know what we are doing by then :-)

Hi Guys
We arrived in Auckland at 07:00 this morning (Friday 3rd August) due to the date line the 2nd of August did not happen in our world. We have a holiday rental in the CBD off of Nelson and will be using that as our base until we secure a rental for us and our furniture when it arrives.

Let us get our bearings and then I will post a suggested place to meet - is the weekend the best for everyone or would an evenig be better during the week.

Speak soon

Welcome to the City of Sails.

Always up for a meet but an evening would most probably be better for me though.

have fun
