News from New Zealand

Kate called from "the cottage" today. She is in love with the people of New Zealand. She saw a physician on Sunday when she was in dire straits. She said he was amazing. Sounds as if he was in his forties, a ?surgeon?, who had just returned from the Philippines treating lepers! He worked with amputees. He gave Kate the whole low down on the physiology of anxiety attacks and then drove Adam and Cameron to a pharmacy (on Sunday) so that they could get an rx for her! This cost her all of $17 total! She said the people in the hotel were very concerned for her, asking "Ms. Sheppard, is there anything we can do for you?"!!
The vistas are amazing....she was describing to me what she was looking at while on the phone- vineyards backed by forests and then the ocean! Scotty---beam me up!!!!
