What an extra surprise we had on the friday before the holidays! We found out that we needed to be packed up quickly because we were going on holiday with Liam and his family! We were so excited and couldn't wait for an adventure.
16 - 19 July
We went to Liam's Nona's and relaxed. Liam had some ski lessons but he didn't like it so played in the snow tunnels at Mt Hutt instead. We stayed in the car and kept warm for the day, it was really cold outside and we are still getting use to seeing snow!
20 July
Liam's family woke up early, so did we, and went to the airport to catch a plane to Wellington. The plane was a really big Air NZ plane. Then when we got to Wellington we had to wait for ages for the campervan that the family had got. After we got the campervan we went to TePapa and Liam really like the Dodo and the 4D movie that we saw, we really like the map of NZ, we could even see Karitane.
21 July
We went to pick up Liam's dad from the airport and then went and rode the cable car. After that we walked (or should we say Liam carried us) up 253 steps to the Cape Pallisen Lighthouse.
22 July
We slide down sand dunes at Castle Point and walked to another light house, it was such a lovely sunny day! We really like sliding down the sand dunes, but we got sand every where, Charge even had it in his ears and couldn't get it out, he was stomping all over the place trying to get it out, in the end Liam's mum help him get the sand out.
23 July
We went to see the rare white Kiwi at Pukaha, Mt Bruce. She was very easy to see in the dark. Liam's sisters wanted to leave us there with the Kiwi, but we made sure that we were right beside Liam the whole time so that they couldn't get us. When we got to the holiday park we played tag on a jumping pillow, it was heaps of fun.
24 July
Today was raining and drizzling. We went to the National Aquarium of NZ, where Liam saw lots of animals. Liam's favorite was the stingrays, penguins, the turtles, alligators and we loved seeing the Nemo fish! After that we went to the marina and had fish and chips, they were so yummy! After we went to the Craters of the Moon, they were super smelly.
We were a bit worn out after a busy day so we had a nap in the campervan while Liam and his family soaked in the thermal pool and went down the water slide until it was their bedtime.
25 July
Today Liam's family did the 1Km long, 170m high flying fox. They said it was so fast that their eyes watered really badly. Liam was to young so he went on the 80m hydrolift instead. They said that we were to little so we had to watch all the action from the bottom, that made us sad, specially since I'm a monkey and can climb really high!
26 July
Today was the last day of our adventure with Liam and his family, we helped pack up the campervan and then we all got back on the plane and flew to Christchurch. Once we got there we made our way back down the coast to Karitane.
Thank you so much for taking us on holiday Liam and his family. We had such a blast and it was good to see some more of the country!
We are going to Ella's this weekend. We can't wait to have some fun with her.
