ABOUT US



ABOUT US
We are from Cornwall, England.
We love to travel and to explore places in a campervan. We find wide open spaces exhilarating
and do lots of walking. Show us an accessible hill or mountain and we want to go up it.
We like watching birds but are not twitchers. To be honest Lawson is more into bird spotting than me but what I find amazing
is the diversity of birdlife, and the fact birds of all sizes continue to live side by side with us humans. So, in the course of our explorations
we may make a detour to the local dump because more often than not it will be one of the best places to see birds.
We are sure New Zealand will not disappoint us when it comes to birds but what about other wildlife and natural wonders?
Will we encounter anything to beat the sight of polar bears on sea ice at the North Pole?
And what will we think of the house at Paraparaumu that Ron and Vivien have built? All will be revealed.......

Cool capital

Ticker tape message

Loving Wellington!
It is known as the windy city, and often has hurricane force winds but today it's sunny with just a light breeze.
We've walked up to one of the high points - Mt. Victoria . Lawson went up there 30 years ago when he was in the Royal Navy and serving on HMS Invincible; the city's changed a bit since then.
Just had lunch sitting near the Civic Centre - a lovely open space with views over the water. Everyone around us is laid back and happy; a great atmosphere. Free Wi-Fi here too.
Now we're off to the Museum, Te Papa. It's something special we're told.
