Halfway there!

After a two hour delay whilst we waited in the plane for the de-icing vehicles to get to us, we were away.

We are now in Singapore Airport, waiting for the flight to Auckland. We have quite a wait, but it's a great airport and we have booked ourselves into a lounge, so we can get a bit of peace and quiet, comfy chairs and . . . a shower!

Here's the Butterfly Garden at Singapore Airport. Beautiful and very popular. Excellent for de-stressing!

Thank you so much for all the messages yesterday. You are all wonderful. I am not going to try and reply to each comment at this point, suffice to say that it is just great to have that kind of interest and support. I will now have a look at your journals and see what you've all been doing. Next stop Auckland - we hope!
