Monday, Tuesday.


We had a fab evening at Sim and Jane's house. They have kindly lent us a tent and some equipment so we can head off into the sunset. The boys loved playing with Alfie their golden retriever.

We also discovered how to find and open pine nuts. Who knew they came from pine cones! Oh, and Macadamia nuts, delish.


Tuesday  begins with a new look for Elliot.

Then a beach picnic without Mark as he spent the day with the Air Ambulance, jammy Dodger.


Cooling off.

New Zealand does beaches! Huge expanses of glorious sand and surf which never feel crowded. Plus fab facilities to go with it.

Heading for the spit.

Wading across, this water was warmer!

We made it. These puddles were heavenly, so warm.

Large tanker comes into view.


Elliot gets his groove on at the golf course with Mark and Grandad. Whilst Freddy makes friends with the boys next door.


Oh and the golf course is right next to the airport.
