Finished for now

Well, Fiona and I have been back in New Zealand a couple of days, and we are struggling to come to terms with the cold and the jet-lag. I am back at work and the hot & hectic days in Germany and the thrill of being a part of the World Cup seems a long time ago now, but we both have some very good memories to keep us going.

I would like to thank all the many people that met during the course of our travels, both old friends and new ones for their hospitality and friendship, and for helping to make our trip as memorable as it was. Thanks to everyone that left comments and encouragement on the blog, your involvement has made the effort worth so much. And finally, I would like to thank Yates for his constant good-humour, his endless patience and his overwhelming generosity that helped make every single day a special one... Cheers mate...

Roll on South Africa in 2010... See you all then..?
