The butterflies and bees are out in force right now and Hamilton Gardens with the colourful flowers is a great place to see them.

Boxing Day relaxation. Run around the lake this afternoon. Needed to move after all the food and drink yesterday. It was a bit moody down there today… threatening rain and swirling wind.

It was lovely to have Christmas Eve visitors today. A last minute change of plan saw Harry Hoggarth and Megan arrive yesterday afternoon for their last 24hrs of their stay in NZ.
Breakfast in the garden followed by a walk in to town for lunch, then a dash to Auckland airport.
Lovely to see Gus and Harry still friends after all these years.

It’s been a lazy sort of day. Think my cold might be on the wane…I do hope so as I am running in the Abel Tasman event in 6 days time and I haven’t managed to run for the last week. Scary! Today’s photo is an edited one that I took earlier in the week…oops no photos today! A mashup of geothermal deposits and RiffRaff!

Morning walks around the lake always bring photos of the day. We disturbed some of the geese (not on purpose) and caught them as they landed on the lake.
