Just thinking that we arrived here in Christchurch in the tail end of a horrendous hailstorm...and mostly since then it has been t-shirt and shorts or cycling kit weather, unless we were at altitude...and even then!!
Now with Storm Ciara barreling its way across Europe, it looks as if we will be arriving back in Glasgow on the tail end of another!
We are busy car cleaning and resting. Two friends we had hoped to meet up with here are busy with family and funerals of aged relatives.
Another was away in India and Nepal, until we left the North Island...
Things happen. New friends are made too.
We have done just over 4800 km...a little over 3000 miles...in our almost three months here, plus the distance pedalled. I wish we could have done it all by public transport, but it would not have worked, unfortunately.
We will be making up for all those miles travelled when we return, apart from when we go on a Visit Family Trek...but we will have to see if that can be done by public transport!...all 1500 miles round trip to see them all!!

The weather has been wild here courtesy of said storm, and although petering out there are still short sharp hail showers - *yay* I know it is winter, but this wet stuff is rubbish! Safe trip back.
Hope you're having (had?) a good trip back! Storm Ciara was no fun but not too terrible, at least down where we are. We didn't get the worst of it, though.
Have a safe trip home. Wether is frequently making decisions for us these days!
(O)
I love a good storm, we're so in need of one here and lots of rain.
What a trip! Safe travels❣️❣️
Following the storms.
