River Trip December 09

We all headed to the river for the afternoon and had a great relaxing time. Had the spot to overselves and just chilled out to some good music. Got some great shots of those brave enough to hit the rope swing and mud slide.

Water Water Everywhere.

You just cant not jump off the Tairua bridge. Cant believe how great the weather was very relaxing and great to catch up with the cuzzies. Connor and I went fishing in the estary, it was a great night out and caught a couple of nice Kawai and a snapper.

Xmas at the beach. Hot as, and lots to eat the way it should be. Long time off the blog but hope to slowly catch everybody back up. Hope you enjoy these Pete I know you are looking in now and again. Great catching up in the New Year.

Lake Taupo

A final swim in Lake Taupo before getting home. Lake Taupo is 2.5hrs from Bulls. A great place to stop and cool off and have lunch. They love to snorkell and have a good explore.

Trip to Whitianga.

On the second trip back to Tairua

the kids visited the cousins in Whitianga, Cameron is missing from the picture hence why the kids have their arm around no one. I was in Bulls having a couple of days to myself and working at the pub while these guys were lapping up the sun, lucky! Of course after a hard day on the beach you have to jump into the spa to relax, life is tough at the beach. This is Joanne otherwise known as Ada, I have known Joanne since we were kids at school. She is one tirless mother who just keeps on going. The horses name is Mana she is my nieces (Jessica) The only other girl in the clan of boys!

My Mate Melissa

My mate Melissa goes camping also at Tairua, so of course had to go and see her for a beer and

a catch up. Dad called in to pick the kids up for a swim.

It was a great week, with lots of swimming and fishing. Connor and Nyah stayed on for a week then Anton and Shea went back to pick them up. A 6hr trip. So they were lucky. Melissa has been camping with her two kids Bryanna and Carlin for years and one of these days we will all go on a big trip again.

More Rellies

Us with more Rellies in Tairua. This is Mum's brothers bach (Brian). So called in for a

beer and a catch up.
