Totally sustainable travel in a traditional manner.​​​​​​​​
We carry everything in​​​​​​​​

Busy morning at the snowy stables
Hope that you had the most wonderful weekend everyone xx
Here in NZ it was very busy as we had
Opening of Duck Shooting weekend on Saturday

Phew a busy time to fit everything in but lovely to be able to be together again. The whole Covid situation has really made us feel so grateful to be able to see one another and hug again hey?
John and I headed down to our rock and roll dancing on Saturday night it was so much fun to see everyone Oamaru Dancers - Rock and Roll Although I have to say, we were a little out of breath!
It just shows you how quickly you can loose your fitness.

"May the memories of the mountains fill your heart to overflowing"
Aroha from Aotearoa NZ
Today is Anzac day here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
This is a day that we remember those whose lives were turned to war.
"Each year on Anzac Day, New Zealanders (and Australians) mark the anniversary of the Gallipoli landings of 25 April 1915. On that day, thousands of young men, far from their homes, stormed the beaches on the Gallipoli Peninsula in what is now Turkey" _Wikipedia
Lives forever changed or lost forever those they loved.
Here, we talk about the "spirit of the Anzacs" with great reverence,not because we love war but because against enormous odds they gave so very much of themselves.
Starved of food
Suffering from disentry and malaria
Facing firing squads if they fell asleep on duty
Life was a living hell so far from their homelands.
"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them" _Robert Laurence Binyon
