Actually, Sylvia was officially a visitor in NZ, since she was travelling on her British passport she only got a stamp for a six month stay. Not that that was a problem, we sadly only had 16 days in the country...
It was great to come home for a bit of summer and to catch up with so many friends and family. It would have been nice to have been able to spend more time and catch up with more people! Oh well, next time. We had a fantastic time back home, I can't be bothered writing any more right now so I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Thanks everyone, and enjoy the rest of your summer :-)
(Unfortunately I don't have any photos of Rachael and Richard's wedding, the main point of our return! Perhaps I'll add some later)
