Where has the time gone!

Sorry for lacks of posts being trying to sort out getting photos from iPad to Blog!!! Will try and put some on later as I've found an App. Had a great week in Napier with Colette and Nigel. Weather has improved with each day. Went for 2 days to Lake Taupo, and stayed in a hotel overlooking the lake, which is the largest freshwater lake in the whole of Austalasia, we went to the Huka falls, which were very impressive after all the rain! Anyone who followed our Austalia blog will know rain follows us! We've visited some fantastic wineries and restaurants. Today is Art deco weekend in Napier, so we are all dressed up in 1930s and 1920's clothes. It's is to commerate the earthquake in 1931 and all who survived, it's ironic that today is the 1st anniversary of the Christchurch earthquake, a sad day. Got to go everyone waiting, more later!

  2. Hiya Sue....Wow Lake Taupo is wonderful, we sat on the south shore and had a picnic, ''time to absorb the beauty''. Huka falls is amazing to see and hear the rush of the water as it comes through under the bridge and beyond, quite mesmerising....we are back one year from our trek, so lovely to hear you are doing some of the things we did....enjoy.....Regards Rosie
