(Parent's note- we have covered a whole lot of territory in the RV since leaving Christchurch. This means we have seen a great deal, but the boys are a little more focused on what we have DONE vesus what we have SEEN. So, their details are a little lacking- but I will try and post a lot of pictures to give you a better idea of what we're seeing. There has also been a few late night arrivals that meant no internet, so we apologize for a little lack in blogging but assure you we are all doing great).
Burke: Since we have left Christ Church in the RV, we have driven all around creation. From Ch. Ch. We drove to Queenstown, only stopping in Cromwell to take a picture of giant fruit. We stayed at a Holiday Park in Queenstown after having some fancy pizza at The Cow in a back alleyway. I found a phone under the booth, and me being the nice person I am, turned it into the staff.

The next morning consisted of a walk to the Jet boating rides just to check it out, we ended up actually jet boating. It was fun, there were lots of tight spins and turns, and we went very fast to the point of numb faces. After jet boating, we went to Skyline Queenstown which was like Skyline Rotorua. We took the Gondola up, and ate lunch up there until the Henrys arrived. We went luging there which was fun for all those who went on it. After taking the Gondola back down and doing some shopping in downtown Queenstown, we drove until dark to a lakeside RV park (with no electricity which meant no heat) where we saw great views of the stars because of the lack of light pollution. We woke up this morning, had breakfast and began driving. We saw many cool views on a little hike and are driving to Fox Glaicer.
