Well, DH and I have been in NZ visiting our youngest DD for about 3 days. So far we have not strayed too far from Auckland, but soon we are leaving to visit Rotorua so DH and DD can go Zorbing. Kinda like rolling down a hill in a huge ball, kinda like a hamster in a wheel. I am gracefully declining to try this, but have assured them I will stand by and help mop them up when they barf! TeeHee! :lol:
Don't always have access to the internet, but just had to stop by to check on everyone, and say hi!

Hope everyone is getting lots of quilting done. I brought some handwork to do on the plane, but haven't really had the time and/or ambition to do anything.

Take care all! CYL!

I've got to share a secret with you - my fav place in Rotorua. http://www.waimangu.co.nz/ Shhh! Don't tell too many people or they'll spoil it. You need to be in good enough shape to walk down a big hill but it's beautiful and less touristy than some of the town-based attractions.

Wait, rolling down a hill in a big ball, like a hamster??!!! Yes, I am drawing the line at that one for sure. It's going in the same file as bungee jumping, jumping off cliffs with a hang glider and a long list of other things that scare the bajeebers out of me. My insurance will only pay so much after all. On a totally different note, New Zealand! I'm sure it's even more beautiful than it seems on TV and DVDs. Have a great time!
