Another week gone by and Christmas fast approaching. Having a great spell of fine weather with temperatures yesterday in the high 20's. Long may it last. The next problem will probably be a drought, we are already having to water each night, luckily no restrictions yet. Have put in a clock system so it will still do the watering even if we are away, great idea.

Took this pic of the cabbage tree (Cordaline) in our garden yesterday in full bloom
A busy week ahead with a friend out from England for tea tomorrow, Tues. Altrusa Christmas dinner Wed, Wine Club tasting Thursday and Caravan Club rally Friday - Sun. In between Avril has to work and I still have that list of jobs-doesn't seem to shrink!! The wine tasting is around the wines from our very own local winery only 5 minutes south of Levin. This has been a real success story as no one expected it to succeed. Check out the link http://www.ohaugravels.co.nz/

Himatangi Beach Caravan Park

Lauren had a "baby shower" here Saturday afternoon, a get together of friends to celebrate the coming event. She is coping well, looking really good and no doubt waiting impatiently for end of term, as is Avril, although for different reasons!!
The picture shows where we are having the Christmas Rally with the Caravan Club. Not far to drive only about 30kn north of here just off the main highway.
