It is a while since I have had the time or energy to update.
We are just on the cusp of going on holiday. Tomorrow we set out on our three week holiday to the South Island. We are doing a big circle tour, taking the ferry tomorrow morning to Picton, then down the West Coast to Southland, then across and to return up the east coast.
We are all looking forward to the break. It is nearly a year since my last proper break, and I have been experiencing that fading of interest at work scenario, and the thought of time away becomes more overpowering.
So the camera will be out again. I have even bought some expensive transparency film to try to capture the scenic beauty, and utilise the great wide angled effect of the expensive piece of glass with the film SLR. The digital and camcorder will all have an airing, so plenty of material in the pipeline for future blogs.
We are hoping that the weather is going to improve as of late it has been terrible. It has been ridiculously windy, there has been little sunshine or warmth and it has been wet. Joseph and Isaac have had only three cricket games so far this season out of eight possible. Maybe, as summer is just around the corner, things are going to improve-especially in the south.
Eleanor has finished her NCEAs, and Joe finished school last week as well. So the two of them have been swaning around since, having fun, and not doing enough jobs around the house. Isaac is still at school, and will miss the last two days. Not much missed there then.
Here’s to happy holidays.
