Rachel, Kathryn and Louise

Today Louise, Rachel and Kathryn called in to say farewell as they headed south again for work in a backpackers in Franz Josef's glacier. We have really enjoyed their company and enthusiasm for being in New Zealand.
Last night I tried to do the kiwiana tea for them- roast lamb, kumara, new potatoes, peas, corn, gravy and mint sauce followed by boysenberries, trifle and pavlova! It was a good night and they enjoyed eating a roast. It made a nice change from flatting food and pasta!

We enjoyed their company and talk of Londonderry, connections with Dad and their lovely Irish accents. We wish them a safe journey and hopefully they will be able to call in on their next attempt at leaving the beauty and grandeur of the South Island.
