Hi all, I have missed you ALL!!! I didn't get onto the internet other than ONCE when I was away, so as you can imagine I had severe withdrawal symptoms!!!
So after 9 days road-tripping in the South Island, I am back and shattered! And have work tomorrow!
We DID get our flights cancelled last Monday due to snow, so changed them and flew to a place called Nelson and hired another car to drive down to Christchurch where we picked up our original car. Busy times!!
 |
| This is the small plane that took us to Nelson - teeny weeny!!! |
 |
| The green goddess we hired for the trip - crammed full of snowboards and suitcases!! |
 |
| I drank WAY too many of these to keep warm (my excuse) so need to hit the gym tomorrow! |
 | |||
| And survived some pretty freezing temperatures! |
I will start uploading some proper pics of my trip tomorrow. Our friend from the Bahamas is still here, and is currently visiting an out of hours doctor with a really bad throat - cold weather eh!!
I was VERY excited to learn yesterday that I won Aprilia's giveaway!!!! I have a $75 voucher for Shopbop.com and think i will finally treat myself to a new watch for my collection!!
This is the first competition I have ever one so I am VERY PLEASED!! Thanks Aprilia!!
How have you all been???? Fill me in and spare no details!!!
