Hiding and Hunting Rocks

So much fun in the pouring rain! We got drenched to the skin but the kids just loved it.  The new craze in Rotorua is painting and hiding rocks in the parks so others can find them and posting them on the local Rotorocks Facebook page.
 
Today we went down to our local Hamurana Springs with our bag of freshly painted rocks and hid them in and around the trees. We also found lots of others, some Mya brought home and some she re-hid. 
 
We're going to get painting again tonight so we've got some more to hide.

Happy Valentines Day!

Even after nearly-10 years of marriage, my darling husband still surprises me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers.  A great present to wake to in the morning.

The Power of the Hairdresser!

 

Safe Travels Dear Friends

This weekend our dear friends Bert and Brigitte are leaving our sunny shores to start a new chapter of their life in Denmark.  We will miss them greatly.  Added Denmark to our list of countries to visit.
 

Sunday Walk

Mad Dogs and Englush Men......... We took a walk in the scorching heat down to our local shop for an ice cream. A 3/4 hour walk took us 3 hours with a lot of stops and starts to paddle in the lake.  Mya and I decided to try and walk in the lake for the return trip, very refreshing in a 28 degree heat.
