Lazy, aren't I ....








So much for my trying..!! I think my main problem is that nothing very much happens in my little corner of the world...soooo, nothing to say. most of the time.
Really, May was a little out of the ordinary.... my husband, my sister and her husband, and myself had a lovely almost-four-week vacation. Each couple hired a motor home and set of on what turned out to be a 4,000 km tour of the South Island (NZ that is). Add to the kms 4 hour flights each way (my sister lives in Australia) plus 1.5 hour flights for dh and myself.
Anyone gets the chance, they should visit there. The scenery is absolutely beautiful and the weather was marvellous. (Not to say it is always great weather---shortly after our return the whole island was blanketed in snow for weeks. This may well be a frequent occurence other parts of the world, but it doesn't happen like that here very often...truly..!!
I hope you enjoy the photos Laurel. Atlas ready..??
#1 is the most southerly point in Sth Island@ Bluff
#2 is the black pebble beach at Kaikoura (never knew we had pebble beach)
#3 was taken at dusk @ Pakawau...almost at the most northerly point
#4 ...can't remember off hand
#5 Rainbow caused by blowhole Punakaiki
#6 Is the road leading into Queenstown..follows Lake Wakatipu
#7 is NZ highest mountain..some 12,000 ft (lots of others almost as high)
It is winter time here right now, and when it is nice outside I am busy rearranging parts of my rather large garden. Don't tell dh but I am decreasing the amount of flower beds, and increasing the amount of grassed areas. Guess who does the lawn maintenance...lol... Nah, not me ...
'Til next time....au revoir .... Eve
