I think this might be a long update as we've been away from the web for some time now. The last thing we mentioned in the blog was leaving Thailand....
So, Singapore... It's clean, safe, hot, expensive, pretty small and easy to get around.
We spent 3 days there (after some passport issues at immigration... it's no fun sitting in a little room being stared at and having your finger prints taken.... Singapore didn't like me). We charged about on the metro seeing the sights. We visited Sentosa Island and stayed in Little India. We saw the Christmas lights on orchard road and listened to some a capella christmas carols.... Nice.
On to New Zealand, and after some panicing about not being allowed in (passport issues again) we arrived on Christmas Day at about 1 in the morning. We checked into a flash hotel in the CBD and went to a tapas restraunt for a semi-christmas dinner. On boxing day we headed over to Waiheke Island for 10 days or so. Andrew and Mariana's wedding was fantastic and it was super to spend a few days with them, Gary and Leigh, David and Tina, the kids and of course, Adam (and the purple dragons)... Good times.
Highlight of the trip so far was swimming in the sea at 2 in the morning after the wedding in a cloud of algae bloom which phosphoresced, fosforessed, phosforessed, phossfofofo - glowed, glowwed... oh well it was amazing, trully stunning. Go and find some.
We've got to dash again as we have invaded Denver's house near New Plymouth and are taking up his internet.... Will finish this post off later on.
Happy New Year everyone!!! Big Love x x x
