Yes, a happy time in the sun. The weather has changed and there has been about ten days of sunshine, no rain and calm air. Glorious.
Joe managed “Player of he Day” on Saturday, when the coach finally recognised his skills. 3 for 21 0ff 4, and a better performance generally in the field. However, the team lost-but then someone has to.
The family managed a few games of Yatzee over the weekend, when S showed her grumpy side when not winning. The roll of the dice was not with dad.
The fit family went to Oriental Bay on Sunday morning. 7km run for M&D, a cycle for Joe, Isaac on his scooter, and Eleanor running with him. All total athletes. Then a picque -nique in the sun at the Botanical Gardens, playing catch and listening to Bruce Springstein on the iPod-the hand-me-down-size-of-a- brick one Sara gave me.
