January 4th
Yasmine took us over to Akaroa for a
day it was stunning the weather was top notch and to add to the fun
Rory managed to catch 3 fish on his new fishing rod that Grandma Rose
and Grandad Mark had given him for Christmas. We had a great lunch of
fresh cooked fish and chips so cheap compared to Aussie and enough
for 6 of us. On the way home we made a stop at Barry's Bay where I
picked up a couple of cheeses to bring back with me. A great day had
by all very tired at the end of it, but as we had not been there in
years it was a great day. We had fresh Fish and Chips for lunch and sat under the Pohutakawa trees that were in flower beside the wharf. After lunch Yasmine,Rose and I went for a stroll through the shops while Rory and Grandad went fishing. Rory got a fishing rod for Christmas and he caught 3 fish, he was so excited.
