The final flurry

 It's funny how you look forward to something for so long and suddenly it arrives. The next two weeks were a flurry of adventures and catch ups. Kim came up to Nelson lakes the following day and we climbed Parachute rock, we then had an amazing weekend with Kim Sakkie and the kids tramping to Sylvester hut. 




This was followed by three incredible days in the Abel Tasman 






















then a ride over the Mangatapu saddle to meet Ally, catch the ferry and drive to Taupo.  We spent 2 days in Taupo tying up loose ends then cycled to rotorua to meet Debbie's mum and Dad, have a farewell dinner with Emma's parents and get our bikes serviced.  We then had three fabulous days in waihi beach before the last leg of the journey to Auckland. Now it's time for the European adventure to begin! What a beautiful country we live in !
