Spring is definitely here, the kowhia tree in our garden is in flower and the Tuis are out in force getting drunk on the nectar. However the rain still keeps coming. Christchurch returning to some normality today with most schools open and shops starting to open up again. Some amazing stories about individuals and families and what they have been through.

Busy week ahead with Caravan Club meeting here tomorrow night, partners coming for shared meal, probably pizzas, before meeting. Dinner with Avril's fellow workers Friday night. A thing they do each term at a different staff members house. Contractors coming Tuesday to install mirrored sliding wardrobe doors in two spare bedrooms. Will help to make them look larger we hope. Roughly planned trip for two weeks time. Travelling up to New Plymouth with another couple who have caravan. Going to try out some of the POP (Park over properties) on the way, which are available to members of the NZ Motor Caravan Assoc. (we are now members). Low cost place to park for up to 3 nights. Sometimes have water and power but often you have to be self contained for waste. power, etc. part of the reason we upgraded our van. Will need to go into places with power every other night we think as out batteries will probably only last one night, but will see how it goes.
