Hi guys...

Just got finished posting the blogs that Matt would have loaded onto his laptop prior to your departure. Slowly but surely we are going to get this thing done! Does anyone have a post already written for Monday (travel to Mt. Peel Station with stop at Barker's and BBQ w/Tussock of Rangitata Rafts), Tuesday (Rafting & Rotary), Wednesday (Lincoln Dairy Farm, Black Currant Operation, Boot buying expedition + Untouched World + Kathmandu, etc. & Rossendale wine tasting/dinner), and last but not least Thursday (departure day with curry for lunch and shopping/Arts Centre/Canterbury Museum). Next question, would anyone like to write a post for any of these days? There are a few of you that I don't think have had the pleasure to date...won't call you out quite yet but I will say that the ladies have ALL taken their turn...ummmmmm??? So, if you would be willing, shot me an email: chesveg@gmail.com or rmh27@psu.edu .

Hannah, your video has been a tremendous hit!!! I can't tell you how many people have commented on it. Maggie, Lindsey, Abby & Ben Keim...would you guys be able to post your videos? Am I forgetting anyone? I would be happy to walk you through the blog login if you are willing? Again, email: chesveg@gmail.com or rmh27@psu.edu .

Ok, better run. It is almost 1am...pray that Chesley sleeps through the night or I am really in trouble. She is missing you guys...Mum & Dad are not quite as interesting as you lot!!!
Cheers, Mary
