Evening walk up Pukemokemoke. Great to get out.

A day out with my boys. The water flowing down the Kaituna at Okere Falls was quite spectacular and I finally got to swim in Rotoma. But my photo of the day is my boys all together. Doesn’t happen often nowadays!

Another blue sky day but a work day for me! Never mind it’s a day off tomorrow!! I escaped at the end of the day just in time to buy some new running shoes!
Don’t forget to look up!

Another day with family. Two in a row – so good. Another hockey game. Autumn is definitely here..the days have been beautiful with clear blue skies and warm sunshine but it’s cold when the sun goes down!
Interesting to see that the river level is dropping but still not down to its usual. These two photos show the difference. I wonder when the pier will be fully visible?

Nice to be home! Lazy morning, hockey afternoon, pub evening. Great to catch up with family and friends. Gus played his first game for the Prems team today…he was called up because they were short and he made a good account of himself.

Another sunrise over Auckland from One Tree Hill! Beautiful clouds this morning. It’s great to see so many people enjoying green space in the city.

In Auckland for the Google Summit. An interesting keynote from Jaime Casap who is the Education Evangelist for Google – what a great title!
Wandered up One Tree Hill twice today once to see the sunrise and then for the sunset! So nice to get outside and up high after a day cooped up indoors!

I spent today with some inspiring teachers today in a beautiful school in the heart of the Waikato. They are embarking on a journey with enthusiasm and passion. So lucky to be a part of it. Unfortunately, I don’t have a photo as I dashed straight up to Auckland afterwards and we were so busy during the day.
Instead I’ll share this collage of my boys because I love how they are all smiling and I miss them when I’m away!

The sun returns! Work morning, play afternoon. Took the boys to Wairongomai and Butler’s Incline! It is a beautiful walk through the bush and amazing to think that back in the 1800s all the trees were chopped down to make way for goldmining. This report from a newspaper of the time shows how important the industrial age was by comparison to ecology! And this is Gus at the top of Butler’s Incline!

Easter Monday. Planned to go for a walk but it rained so decided to swap days and work today and play tomorrow. Ended the day with cake and beer!
