For your eyes








Yesterday we were out exploring Christchurch...we hit the summit road, had breakfast over at Lyttleton, BIL and SIL went punting on the Avon, we wandered through the arts centre, cold coke in front of the fireplace at an Irish bar... It was just a lovely way to spend a day. Great environment and wonderful company. Oh and the photo of all the toys? That was a car done up like that (pretty much covere except for the windscreen for Kidsfest which started on Monday. Looked pretty cool to me! Also some beautiful mosaic stained glass windows inside Christchurch Cathederal.

Funny, we have a River Avon not many miles away as well, I don't think I've ever seen anyone punting on it though!

Beautiful windows.

You are getting about these days! Hope you're keeping warm....

Riley's girlfriend is black but carries recessive brown gene so we're hoping a ginga might result. He's just gotta get the job done properly! LOL!
