Movies and Life - December 2007

Greetings from New Zealand

December 24th 2007 01:37

Rotorua - our trip

Hello, we've escaped from manic Sydney for a week in peaceful New Zealand. We had our family celebrations last weekend which were great and now we have a week to ourselves. This is quite a rare and precious event and we are definitely enjoying it, what a gorgeous country this is, so peaceful and graceful.

So far we have absorbed the lilting, vivid scenery, chatted our heads off, eaten like wild animals and watched a couple of dodgy films like Slither (utter rubbish) and Into the Blue on SKY telly-unfortunatley my husband has a thing for Jessica Alba, not based on her skills (obviously), but her looks.

Fergs is happily esconced with my parents and their two fluffers and is keeping them all entertained.

So, I won't be Orbling for a while as we are in such a remote spot, but I just wanted to say hello and wish you all well for Christmas. Hope you are all well and thank-you for all your support throughout the year as well as the laughs and fun.

Byeee,

Tracy

Yes, I knew it was going to be beautiful, but I was still gob-smacked by it. There was beauty everywhere we looked...incredible.

Hope you're well,

oh wow! I hope you are loving your trip! You'll have to put photos up to show. I know they'll have nothing to with the theme of your movie blog but it'll be so exciting for us to see

Merry be-lated christmas and happy new year! Sorry I am late, I am still getting my head around real life after a bit of a break myself....

Hi Amy

Good to see you, Happy New Year to you as well. I know what about you mean about scrambling to catch up, I'm the same.

You read my mind, I was thinking of putting up some pics as the scenery was so beautiful, but I wasn't sure I could link it to the main theme of my blog. But, that hasn't stopped me before...so I think I'm going to do it...

Thanks for popping in,

Byee
