How to upgrade 10.0 on AWS EC2

In July I created an EC2 instance of 10.0. The instance detail is as follows.

Code:
EC2 10.0-RELEASE AWS Marketplace-eb59074f-cb59-4205-9cb9-72808aa73b4b-ami-c42fd9ac.2 (ami-ba11e0d2)

How do I go about getting my instance to run 10.1? I had read that freebsd-update is not used on the EC2 instances.

Thanks,

Never mind. I was just browsing the AWS marketplace and saw this link which says
10.1-RELEASE Upgrade instructions for FreeBSD 10
To upgrade to a newer version of FreeBSD/EC2, it is recommended that you launch a new instance and copy your data across;
no mechanism is available for in-place upgrading yet, due to FreeBSD/EC2 requiring additional patches on top of FreeBSD.

So, I'll start to figure my copy strategy.
