I've just been chatting to Emma and have a little update for anyone who is interested. Emma and Kellz decided last night (at Taupo) it would be lovely to have all the kids sleeping in one room so they could have the other but they were too optimistic... it sounds like when Maya woke this morning, she woke all the babies up - by 6.05am!! Maya's muffled explanation in the background sounded a bit like the babies were starting to stir/wake, and therefore they were awake, so she didn't actually wake them up.
So the van got packed up - and then perhaps slightly unpacked to allow room for the kids to get in

- while the babies screamed and cried and Sienna was not too impressed with today's trip

Apparently if I see a frazzled looking woman up town tomorrow with three kids, no hair and pj's still on, it will probably be Emma
Now they've finally arrived in Palmy and got the kids all settled for the night etc and Emma has got out her laptop with wireless broadband - only to have to explain to the guy at the backpacker's how it all works so he can set it up for her?

So she can't get online tonight but tomorrow will be stamping her feet until something is worked out and she can again check emails and PMs etc.
