    damn, due to google not being aware of events that I have not put into my calendar I have been double booked for this weekend, so I am going to have to bail.

    Jeeze, I'll have to get out of bed a bit earlier. Are you going down the road and back, Out to Makahu as Cary and the guys did on the Mapea ride or do you want to go threw Aotuhia ?

    Yes, I was going to take this ride as an opportunity to have a chat to you about doing some rides down your way early in the new year on my way southward.

    Sorry bart, maybe next time.

    Okay Bart & Andy, I have booked Fri, Sat, & Sun in a 3 berth 'Family' Cabin.

    $65 a night for Fri / Sat for the three of us. So works out at $21.67/ea.

    Bart, I understand you're going home Sun? If so, Andy, the tarrif drops to $50 for that night, or $25 ea for Sun.
    IT'S JUST BETTER WHEN THERE'S TWINS INVOLVED..

    Sounds good to me.

    Cheers for sorting that out Steve. I'll be heading home Sunday afternoon. At least I haven't got as far as you guys to go.
