The Fords in New Zealand

We are Chris, Vanessa, Shannon and Alex Ford. We decided some time ago that we wanted to live in a country where the main emphasis was on family and free time rather than the 'live to work' ethos of the UK. We chose New Zealand for this, and many other many reasons. After months of research we decided to settle in the Christchurch area. Our journey begins!

Landed!!


Finally here in NZ. Stayed 2 nights at a motel and are now homeless due to football match taking all the bookings. Vanessa has bought a car, a Holden Cruze which is a Corsa sized 4x4, they are refurbing the alloys so have got a Toyota Hiace on free loan from the garage, we may be sleeping in it tonight! But it stinks of smoke, urghh. People are lovely, can't do enough to help. Bit chilly when the sun goes in but nice otherwise. Beach is fantastic!!!!!!!!!

Money running out, photo's to follow when we have a roof over our heads.
