Saturday before the rain!

Trying to get a good image of the gorgeous colours of OiOi http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/estuaries/3 
It was a great morning exploring the lagoon and creeks behind our village! the boys look like they were racing each other!!!...I think they were?...while I got left behind to take photos!(not more photos mum!!!!).
Cruising back with the tide!!!
We left nothing but bubbles!
Hope you all have a great day!

As the rain eased off last friday we made a quick escape down to the wharf for some much needed air!..

on the way back we spotted these rather unusual cloud patterns!?!
The next morning there were spider webs everywhere!!! they looked so beautiful catching the morning sun.
Hope you are all having a great week!

A wonderful trip to a few Castles in Brittany!!

Ok so I know we are not in Europe but seeing as I was so blog slack and I have a million photos I thought that I might keep boring you for a wee while longer!!!!????

These are in no particular order....but are just a snapshot of a fantastic time in Brittany with Olivier and his incredibly kind family!!
I think that a few wines might have been consumed!!!

....defiently my choice of transport!!!...if I had a choice!
