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!!

Ash in the bath

Ash is super confident in the water now and loves playing cheeky games with us!

Holiday trick!

Evelyn discovered this trick for herself and loved repeating it about 50 times! She spent about 5 minutes at a time curled up inside!
Could be useful when we save up enough to head back to Blighty!
