HAPPY NEW YEAR !!



What did we do on New Year's Day?
We drove to the beach under blue skies and sunshine... and Greg went kayak surfing, (and fell out spectacularly!)


Girls body boarding, that's Sophia in the front

The girls went body boarding and were wave riders for hours, and then we picnicked and ate ice-cold fruit ice-creams and ate ripe cherries by the bucket load.


Ice-creams

We walked around the volcano, Mount Manganui, watched the yachts and cruise ships coming in and rested in the shade on one side, before returning to chilled beers and a barbeque in the evening.

The girls played ball on the beach after dinner, and we finished the day playing games around the lantern and counting the stars. Resolutions included, eating more chocolate, going on more holidays and having more fun here!
What did you do?


Here are our chairs on the beach!
