Bit of an update on thing sthat have happend .... We've had a few issues but hopefully things will get sorted soon next week.
Not the best start to the trip we've been having!!!!
So, a week before we flew we decided to save a huge excess baggage charge we would send most of our paddling gear out via an international courier which said it would only take 5 days to get there for 60quid , not bad we thought!!
We were lucky enough getting on the plane through baggage check with our kayaks with no extra charge and all was looking good.
However, when we arrived in Christchurch, New Zealand we found out there had been big customs delays with our parcel which contains all our paddling gear!
So, almost a week later we are still stuck in Christchurch waiting to get our stuff!!! The weather has been pretty good and we've been getting very frustrated stuck here not been able to get on the sea!
We have been told our stuff is in Customs Christchurch and we can pick it up soon next week, monday or tuesday hopefully. Not ideal at all .... we are getting restless and wasting money stuck in a city .... but we keep reminding ourselves that it could be worse, we could be eaten by a shark!
Won't have access to many computers so don't know how often this will be updated, but facebook is easaier to update so follow stuff there if your intersted!
We've got a tracker device so when we actully get on the sea you can follow us round everyday!

Things will start rolling soon!!
