You can’t beat it on a nice day

Well, in fact we had a fine weekend.
After the fine walk on Friday, the good weather persisted on Saturday, with the high pressure system sitting over NZ, giving us fine blue skies, no wind and warmth. After a stint of cleaning up the garden we had a family trip on the harbour, with Isaac’s friend Heidi, who now lives in Sydney, along for the trip. We took the ferry from the city to Eastbourne, with a quick look at Seatoun. It was a great day for it, with a chance for a close up look at a large ship anchored in the harbour. We walked along the beach at Eastbourne, then squeezed in a ice cream chocolate and iced coffee. The view of the city was refreshing from an alternative viewpoint.The visiting French frigate was waiting on the quay.
Sunday was another “Quirkes are active” morning. A trip to Oriental Parade with M&D running to Kilbirnie and back for 10Km of activity with Isaac doing some scootering with Eleanor n with him, and Joe keeping up the activity with a 5Km run. Then feeling like heroes it was off to lunch with the Burgesses at the St Johns ambulance bar. Good form and fun.

Back to the ranch for relaxing tv-you just can’t beat it.
