It's two weeks and counting!

I've got two assignments - one for International Living to write a lifestyle and property article. And the other is for Dockside, covering boating and marinas etc around the islands. That's a two-parter, so hopefully can break it into the the logical North Island/South Island. Just hope we have enough time.

I've order and received my clothes but now we have to sort out which bags to take. Chris is taking golf clubs as he and Bryan will play the many courses and he wants to learn to fly-fish. So he will be off doing that and I can go exploring other stuff.

We have a housesitter organized who will take care of the kitties. Her name is Toni and she comes every two weeks to clean the house so she knows the kitties so it will be fine.

Getting the bills paid and organized, and all the other things one has to do before going on a fairly long trip. And I still have articles to do for Dockside and the Leader. So the next two weeks will be busy.

But what a reward at the end!
