WELCOME TO THE WATSONS'
NEW ZEALAND FLAVOURED HOMEPAGE!

Hi and welcome! We're John and Deborah Watson. We live in Auckland, New Zealand which is a small country located about 2,000 kilometers south-east of Australia in the South Pacific. Thanks for visiting us. We set up this website in 1999 not only as a celebration (and miracle!) of us getting together after a trail of divorce but also that our extended family of many children have a great family record of history and photographs. Here on our great family website you'll see:

Most of our family
Pictures of most of us (incredibly good looking people)
Really good stuff about Auckland and New Zealand
Links to our favourite Christian and other cool websites
How to contact us by email or via our very own chat room!
Our daughters' weddings - commemoration pages and photos
John's testimony about what led him to be a Christian

By far the majority of our visitors are from overseas and to you we extend a very warm and heartfelt welcome. We have heaps of links, photos and information about New Zealand and of course, our Christian faith. So, lean back, rest a spell and take the tour. We'd really love you to sign our new guestbook (on the right) so that we know that you've visited and where you're from. Unfortunately a hacker destroyed over 2 years worth of entries so we're starting it from scratch. Again, thanks for popping in!
