15 May. Old House

This old disused farm house is just a few minutes walk from the main street of our town of Richmond.

13-14 May. Saturday Morning

Blogger was not available yesterday so I did not bother taking a photo to post. This morning we opened the curtains to a beautiful sunny morning after heavy rain last night. It was good motivation for me to get going on my Saturday morning walk. Everything is so green and fresh and the fungi are sprouting up evrywhere.

12 May. Holly Berries

My holly bush is starting to display it's berries.

11 May. Drawings.

Today a group of the 5 year olds in my class went out side to make illustrations about their reading book with chalk on the concrete.

10 May. Giraffe

Our school is currently celebrating "Book Week". Today one of our staff dressed as Gerald from "Giraffes Can't Dance". Oh dear, Friday week I have to decide what book character costume I will wear!

7-9 May. Auckland Trip.

We have just returned from a very busy and enjoyable weekend trip to Auckland to visit our son who lives there, celebrate his birthday which falls this week and also Mothers Day. Although the weather was perfect I didn't take very many photos. The first is at the vineyard where we had lunch on Saturday, up the coast near Matakana. The second is a very early morning shot out the window of our apartment in the city and the third is a beach on Waiheke Island. The day out, plus a bus tour around the island was my Mother's day gift.
