It was really a lovely weekend, so good in fact that I felt the need to share these photos with you. We pretty much spent the entire time around Havelock North, which is a very pretty town and well worth a look. Here are some things you can do while in Havelock North (over the Easter weekend, when most things are shut...)
1. Go for a stroll in the sunshine
2. Say hi to the huge 100-year-old tree
3. Tell your husband and brother-in-law they need to do the obstacle course / playground race
4. Laugh at the hilarity that ensues
5. Look at the fountain
6. Eat an icecream (this can also be done while looking at the fountain)
7. But of course, the really neat thing about Havelock North (or so model railway enthusiasts will tell you) is... Keirunga Park Railway.
Here you can see and ride on model railways, lovingly run by the local model railway experts.
Here we all are.
On the way back we stopped by Luke's parents' place and borrowed their bikes for a quick ride.
I think fluoro is really my colour...
Until next time :)
Good morning how are you?
ReplyDeleteMy name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.
I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately it’s impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.
For all this I would ask you one small favor:
Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from New Zealand? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in New Zealand in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:
Emilio Fernandez Esteban
Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
28902 Getafe (Madrid)
Spain
If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.
Finally I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.
Yours Sincerely
Emilio Fernandez
