Lost kids – can somebody help me with advice please. I’m starting to get very wo

Good evening

Background: The son-in-law and the daughter are on holidays in the south island of New Zealand. After they went through the Christchurch earthquakes I told them to get out of there and drive south for at least 150klms. Which they did driving a hired camper van.

We’ve been in contact almost daily up until they reached the west coast.

Then all contact was lost despite many phone calls from me and messages. This was about the time when a very large storm hit NZ.

I haven’t been able to contact them on either of the mobile phones after many days, which leads me to believe something is wrong.

I know the country very well after many years of climbing and trekking in the South Island, so I’m very much aware of the objective dangers.

The Christchurch police have been notified of my concerns, but with little detail to give them, I can fully understand their problems.

Tomorrow morning I’ll contact the hire companies and try to get a registration number for the camper van. Then pass the information onto the police.

Is there is anyone on this site who lives in Christchurch or the surrounding area who can give me a bit of local help please?

My contact number is 0409213403

Many thanks
