In just over two weeks we’ll be heading back to New Zealand and back onto the boat. After recovering from the travel we’ll be into boat projects. The change to diesel propulsion will be on and I’ll be working on installing the new AIS transponder, new entertainment system and redoing the nav station. That’ll keep me busy for a few days.
Before we get to New Zealand we’re very much looking forward to sons Ben and Sam accompanied by Ben’s girlfriend, Amy, visiting England next weekend. For the first time in two years we’ll have the whole family together, complete with new addition. For the first three days we’ll all be staying here with Helen’s sister Betty. From the following Tuesday we’ve booked an apartment in Camden Town, London where we can go out and enjoy the capital more easily.
We haven’t been idle while here. Most days we’ve be doing something. Some of it has been catch up on years of being out of the country and sorting out things for our future. We’ve been in and out of London a few times and each trip we’ve had side trips to museums and art galleries. It’s now bitterly cold out so the motivation to go outside is pretty low. Very much looking forward to getting back to the southern hemisphere summer and then, later, back to the tropics.
