With
Granny so sick all I wanted to do was get home to NZ to see her and
be with the family. Once we'd made the decision we spent a crazy
4hrs booking return flights from Lima – Los Angeles – Auckland
(quicker and cheaper that via Santiago ironically), then booking the
overnight bus to Lima, packing up all our stuff before getting to the
bus station. I'm sure we squeezed in dinner somewhere. 48Hrs later
we were back in Auckland, exhausted but pleased to be home.
We
had arrived in time to see Granny and tell her about our amazing trip
so far. She was an amazing person and did so much in her life. She
encouraged all of us to follow our dreams. When we were setting off
on our trip her parting words to me were to have a good time and
phone her if we ran out of money. It was the right decision to head
home.

The winter gardens provided some good photo ops for Ben to try out his new flash. |

We had time to visit the amazing Zealandia, the Karori Bird Sanctuary. There were many birds, including the raucous kakas. |

And slow moving tuataras. |
