Farms and Castles

We got away to the Wairarapa to visit our friends Alison and Barney. We had a great time feeding the animals and catching up. We then headed out top a bach (holiday home) in Castlepoint in a fantastic spot right on the beach. We did lots of walks to the cave and lighthouse. The cave is amazing, with waves breaking on the outside of the reef sending a gale force wind rushing out of the small exit. The surfing was good too!! As you can see from the video we enjoyed the sandboarding.

George and her new toy...

George is hoping to improve her training with this whizzy road bike- better than Nigel's old mountain bike that weighs a ton and has dodgy gears!!

Ashton at play

Not sure if Ashton is enjoying it as much as me, but anyway, shame the sound didn't work- I don't think I configured thr microphone properly! my second go at embedding video in a blog. check out my classes blog for the other-
the human beatbox!
Just finished a working bee for the kindy- shifting a huge sandpit full of sand! about 50 barrowloads and 2 skips later we did it. Ev and Ash both sleeping peacefully now, peace at last!!
