hi kate! this is moritz and felix!

we took a dive in the poor knights with you somewhat a month ago. we were two german guys who forgot to take with us a passport that we left in the dive shop. you gave us a ring when we were already close to auckland so we had to drive all the way back to tutukaka. remember us?

this is just to say thanks. you were very kind and we appreciated it. i told my family how wonderful that dive was! i now take a course to get a licence for boats that i can go diving more often.

hopefully things are going well! all the best,

 

on behalf of my brother felix and me
