Life is all about setting goals, but then you need to carry out and achieve the goals you have set for yourselves and you guys have done that, so well done and may I say on behalf of all your family and friends well done and we are all very proud of what you have achieved.
Love
Tim

Finally I’ve had a few minutes to catch up on your recent travels and gorgeous photos. My favourite is the one of the large bird (is is an albatross?) perched on the side of the boat with the amazing red sunset behind. Am enjoying the photos of the locals too, especially the children.

I had a super dinner and evening at Sally & Tim’s last Saturday with the Torrances and Wards and Vicki. Delicious meal as usual and lots of good chatter. I’m hoping the weather and everything else is on track for Sarah Gumbley’s wedding – looking forward to hearing about it from Sally.

I have friends coming for dinner tomorrow night so will be busy shopping tonight and preparing food/cleaning tomorrow! It’s always worth it once the meal is on the table but a lot can go wrong in the meantime! I’m off to Whangamata for Labour Weekend which is the following weekend and then it’s November, which is super scary.

I still (& and will for a long time) think back to our time with you in Phili. It was a real standout experience in my life and one I’m so grateful to have had. It was a “brave” venue but perfect.

Happy days and love to you both
Janne xo

We were lucky to spend there 10 days in Dec. 2011. We got invited by the little village for Christmas Ceremonies. I will never forget. Hope to come back again one day. :)

His current position is Rambuso ck sudest island. I think he is on the move making his way back to Torres Island by beginning of Sept. His email is phil.plimmer@ xtra .co.nz but not sure wether he is in contact,you probably have a better idea.
