Crossing Over

Well, today we will be leaving the South Island to head back into the 'north'. We were hoping for some nice weather to do a bit of the Able Tasman track before we left the south island but to no avail, it's cloudy and threatening to rain. Oh well. We've had a great trip from Invercargill north including a curious look at these weird shaped rocks on the east coast (as well as a meal at a great seafood restaurant) spectacular views of Mt. Cook (sunny and blue skies) We've had all great overnight spots so far (the free one's are best) and we must say that those little pic-nic spots along the main roads here in New Zealand are great! The one cool campground we stayed at was just outside the Mt. Cook village and as we went to sleep we could hear the glaciers groaning and crashing.


Please keep praying for us as the stress of our whole lives changing again is weighing on us. There are several things that need to fall into place quite quickly here so please pray that our van will sell easily, that our final plans for Thailand go smoothly, that our flights home are un-eventful, and that a place to live and jobs are found relatively easily once we are 'home'. I guess you can also pray that we will adjust to living in Grande Prairie again too!

Your pictures are beautiful, sounds like some great adventures tramping, I went on google earth and that mountain you clinmbed at Easter looked scary. We finally have high speed. Yeah!! Can't wait to see you both:-) Steve's gone to his grandma's funeral in Oregan and Auntie Barb is coming to help me with the dog kennel. Have fun in Thailand and don't get to serious yet. Just tramp on over to Alberta and get a job while you continue searching out your next step. buisness is booming so don't worry about finding jobs I could get you jobs in Brooks easy, and not just working for me;-) Though I am very excited to get the leaky roof fixed, visit with you , get the data entry done for the kennel program and visit, see pics, visit. I can't wait to see you guys and hear your stories first hand. I hope you get to see the elphants and go snorkeling lots in Thailand. See if you can stay out of town in a hut somewhere. Love ya, Anna
