As we left our dear friends yesterday and jumped ship (or plane) back home to our little beach paradise, we hoped that everyone is recovering from the lethal bug sweeping lake Jackson.
I slept for 10 of the 15 hour flight and woke up, a day later, in NZ feeling back to normal.
This is our home, at Waiwera for the next few months.
A few steps down the road the beach.
The pohukawas (our native Christmas tree) are in full bloom, summer is here!
Dan and Mel picked us up at 5.30am and drove us to the cottage! And our wonderful kids, these two and Jack and Steph had done this for us….
Christmas is alive and talking in NZ.
Wow what a lovely surprise. And a gift parcel and beer in the fridge!
And here I was saying to our hosts that we don’t do too much!
Kevin brought mum for a drive and visit, Russ and I still wearing protective face masks so as not to chance giving anyone the “Texas Tummy” thing.
We did a little grocery shop and rest time for Russ and beer time for me! I must be recovered!
Sending warm kiwi hugs to all those we couldn’t hug when we left, and thanks for some fabulous adventures in Texas!
I will keep this story rolling for ya’ll and share some kiwi summer adventures with you, wherever you are in the world.
