Introducing the Family

By Nathan
This is my first post.  My name is Nathan and I am a 9 year-old boy (almost 10) and can't wait for this trip.  My older sister Chelsea is 12 years old and my younger brother Parker is 7 years old.  

 I am looking forward to sharing pictures and stories with you over the adventurous year ahead!

This picture was taken a couple of years ago so we are all a bit bigger now!

      Hi Sinjin - darn tootin'... all going according to the master plan ;) No major hiccups so far! Honestly, the best part is not having to run somewhere or multitask or compromise family time. Really nice to hear from you - thanks for checking in Sinjin! Hope you are well and enjoying life!

    When times are tight and every cent is being stretched to the limit in order to have a family vacation it is so tempting to simply ignore insurance.things to do in kissimmee florida for free

Tongariro Crossing - New Zealand North Island

By
Sorry for the brief hiatus folks - limited wifi slowed me down!  We did the Tongariro crossing 15yrs ago and fell in love with it then - we knew our kids had to experience it too. Ummm... can anyone say AMAZING! For those unfamiliar, the Tongariro Crossing is a 20km hike/tramp that takes you into the caldera(s)  of Mt. Ngauruhoe (more famously known as Mt. Doom in Tolkein's Lord Of The Rings trilogy). The mountain lies above Lake Taupo - New Zealand's biggest lake - which makes for a fitting backdrop throughout the 2nd half of the hike. Turangi - not far from Tongariro National Park We holed-up in VRBO/HomeAway a little town called Turangi, close to Tongariro National Park.  Cheryl's wrote a post about Turangi - check it out ! The hike route This hike is, very debatably, the best day hike in the world - certainly the best we've ever done.   If you like the outdoors, you're fit, and you can do only one thing in NZ - hike the Tongariro Crossing.

By Cheryl
