Around the world in 407 days.....


So, our time in NZ draws to a close.

We fly out of Palmerston North tonight, which has been our home for the last 407 days.  We head back to the UK, to the next chapter of our life which no doubt will be just as exciting.

Our final route will take us through the US via Los Angeles, so technically we will have completed our round-the world trip. Phileas Fogg only beat us by 327 days, but I bet he didn't shoot deer, eat Kingfish and go Penguin spotting with a young girl named Scroggin?!

We are excited to be near friends and family that we haven't seen for far too long, and are sorry to leave some newer friends and an unbelievably beautiful country behind.  This has been an amazing two years that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

Farewell New Zealand; you have been a good friend.
