Sunny Saturday

Once again, we had such beautifully warm weather.

This morning the kids and I got down into the garden to do some weeding and planting some winter vegetable seedlings.

Nathan wanted to get the paints out, so they found some stones, sat on the grass and painted while I sat in the sun reading.

After lunch we decided to walk down to the dairy to buy iceblocks. So Nathan on his bike and Danielle and I walking, we got our iceblocks, sat down on a grassy mound near the shops and people-watched in the sun for a while. The kids then wanted to go down to the beach, so we wandered up the road further to a different beach access we hadn't been down for years.

After a play around we wandered back home again. Danielle did well and walked the whole way which took 1.5hrs by the time we got home.

Both kids plonked themselves down to watch a DVD, Danielle fell asleep while I made dinner.



(oh, and not my shoes, it's common at this end of the beach for walkers to leave their shoes on the wall while they walk).
