Ooh, beautiful! I hope you're having fun!

Just visiting NZ, Paikea, or returning home?

Hey Stephel:) - that was a really fantastic place

In the US, we're stopping off in D.C. and L.A. :) - two places i've lived and liked! -(both Steven and my brother live there, too)

We have been, Pax:)

Hey Peter:) - We are returning home! - These last 13 months went really fast!

Hey Mom2:)

yeah - we have a really big job of putting our pics together in some sort of order! - when that's going to happen, i have no idea - i like ones like this above - that one is a framer:)

hey Vicola:) - lol! - we took the shuttle up - as usual, we were running late - the 40 min uphill wasn't going to happen - we did walk down, though! - hee hee

We have been, LBeeeze, that's for sure - thank you!!!

Thanks, Geology Byotch:) - this year in Switzerland has been really great - i love New Zealand, but it is a long way from everything - great to have had things within hours train ride and even less flight time!
