We have arrived !!
Hi everyone,
After 18 months we have finaly arrived just outside Auckland, we landed at lunch time today to a lovely sunny day. The goodbyes were terrible, on Wednesday I seriously sat at the airport thinking I think Ive made a massive mistake
I just couldn't stop crying....but each day I've felt a little better....so fingers crossed. Our dog arrives at 5.30 tomorrow morning, so hoping she will be OK, now to just find a job 
We are having a BBQ tonight, then to visit the beach tomorrow to give our dog a well earned run

Hey.
Lovely to hear from you.
WELCOME TO NEW ZEALAND
Bet you can't wait to see your dog. She'll maybe be a wee bit jet lagged but she will be over the moon to see you too.
Enjoy your first NZ weekend and your BBQ.

Congratulations on finally making it to NZ
Those goodbyes are so bad, I remember sitting in the airport and on the plane bawling my eyes out and wishing I could stop
Now I couldn't imagine living anywhere else

Haere mai Wishing you all the best with your new life in NZ. Jet-lag is a bugger though, it's taken me a week to get over mine
