Settled into our home and now have chosen a car - Honda Jazz. Most Kiwis drive Japanese imports. Motoring is cheaper, food more costly to buy but eating out good value/quality and great choice.

Started site seeing with a trip to Rotarua to see volcanic activity. Celebrated our 25^th wedding anniversary with a dinner for two – we had planned a big party !! Easter coming up and we are off to house sit in Gisborne with trips to the wineries at Hawkes bay.

Next step -  looking for second hand bikes, golf clubs and tent. Hope to sign up at the sailing club for crewing opportunities. I thought Wales was rugby mad – you ought to experience it here !
