(Updated to December 2016).
We are a retired couple who have spent several years touring New Zealand with a 24 ft Jayco caravan and recently have been touring Australia with a similiar but older Jayco. We returned to NZ in Oct. 2016 and will resume the Australian sojourn in about March 2017 for a few more months.
Dave was a water resources technician with NIWA (NZ) and Nancy was a medical research biochemist who worked on various research projects at the University of Queensland.
Penny the miniature fox terrier accompanied us on our NZ travels, but our two obstreperous (and much missed) Burmese cats stayed safe with a wonderful foster family in Christchurch. Penny enjoyed being a NZ farm dog while we were in Australia; we missed her.
We both have cochlear implants, enjoy photography, and have a penchant for exploring out of the way places.
Part of this webpage is devoted to Nancy’s family history. You are welcome to read the stories, but please do not copy or reproduce any story or part of a story or any photographs without the author’s permission.
I used to look and read your travel logs postings and loved the photography, but haven’t since before Easter 2014. Are the old blog entries transferred to this site so I can see all the wonderful places and experiences you’ve been to./had…? JinPx
Hi Jinnie, No, the old blogs stay on the old blog site at gibblog.blog.com. Thanks for your comments.
I would like to be notified by email when there is a new blog post. Is that possible? Really enjoy your blog, thanks
Yes, certainly. There’s a place to enter your email on the main web site.
Live the Tai Chi on the golf course!!
Hi there, I haven’t meet Nancy yet but I’m Dave’s Great Neice.
Wonderful photos and commentary. Enjoy.

Thanks, Ang. Actually we may have met briefly about 5 yrs ago at Bev and Bruce’s special wedding anniversary lunch in Tauranga; we were with Alison and John and Eleanor.
Hi, I have some data you do not appear to have about Fanny Millne, married to Richard Francis Macloskey. Her brother George William Millne was an Evangelical missionary at my town, in Spain. If you wish, we can share information. My mail is gagomarcos@yahoo.es
Certainly, I’ll get in touch shortly. 🙂
