The Fainting Goat

Dinner out tonight at the new Gastro Bar in town. Great name! We went for the shared plater. Far too much to eat! 

A Day at Lake Tarawera

This afternoon Mya had a wonderful time at Lake Tarawera with Adele and kids whilst I worked. 

Mya read the others a story. 

She has come home exhausted after a fun day of water fun and lots of sun. 

Working at NZHL

Mya had the morning working in my office. We got her doing the lolly stickering again ready for the Home Show coming up. 

Home Harvesting

A quick walk around the garden and I’ve filled my trug. 

The tomatoes are all starting to ripen in the greenhouse. 

Entrance Tidy

I’ve been working on the entrance to the property. I tidied up around the hedge....

Cleared away all the weeds, laid down new weed mat and planted some Escallion Red Knight bushes to fill the area. 

The bank with my creeping Thyme is also coming along nicely. 

Still a massive amount to tidy but at least some areas are coming together. 

Boat Trip Around Rotomahana Lake

Lying underneath the water in the lake are the lost Pink and White Terraces. They were once regarded as the Eighth Wonder of the world. The eruption of 1886 put them at the bottom of this lake. 

Waimangu Valley

We visited the youngest geothermal site created in 1886. Situated just outside Rotorua.
