It's amazing how sometimes a country just keeps rearing it's head at every occasion, this year New Zealand has been at the forefront of a lot of my conversations.
Gwen's step brother Jon, got married in January to Kelly from New Zealand and after the wedding in Cape Town they moved back to New Zealand, they have subsequently had a little boy "Jack" and are very happy.
In February Wendy (my friend who lives in Oz), went to New Zealand for a holiday and told me how absolutely awesome it was.
Wee Claire (my young Irish friend) who had been travelling round Australia last year, broke up with her Ozzie boyfriend and while travelling round Australia, met up with Scottie, who is from New Zealand - he lives in Ireland now and was not happy about the rugby!
After the rugby world cup we all decided that we were going to New Zealand in 2011 to see the next world cup.
The only problem with New Zealand is that they are 12 hours ahead of Ireland if not more, which tends to make communication a problem, but we get by.
So there must be some kind of attraction to the place at the moment, I decided to do a bit of research and found some of the most amazing pictures. If any of you want to get hold of Daryl or Dion I have their email address but won't put them up on the blog.
