The great deception begins

From this day we started the great deception. We had made the decision to return to NZ to weather the Covid surge and avoid a UK winter, but I wanted to surprise Mum so couldn't post anything as we approached flight time. Our route took us north of Paris toward Charles de Gaulle airport. We had arranged storage for Reggie close to there.

We took no photos and spent our time packing and sorting the motorhome. We had to buy suitcases which was trickier than we expected. We finally got some though smaller than we wanted. (And wouldn't you know, the next day we found them in Lidl - bigger and cheaper! Ah well, peace of mind is worth something.)

Fortunately NZ is heading toward summer so we had all the appropriate clothes. We had also taken our passports with us so we had everything necessary for a trip down under instead of a return to the UK.
