Out and about

We have visited beached, and country cafes, a good friend of my Mums, and found geocaches. Some stitching has also been happening

Low tide at the old wharf in Waiuku

Yesterday Jenny and I visited Aunty June, a friend of my Mum. They met the day they started school at age 5. June will be 100 years old this August, she looks amazing and is as sharp as a tack. It was great to see her again.

Lunch on the way home at the Hidden Cafe, about 30 mins from Waiuku. 

Jenny is going ok apart from nerve pain in her leg her new hip joint seems to be healing well.

No photos of sewing will do that next time.

Happy stitching.

New Zealand

I know I am  in NZ by the gardens

Swan plant, no butterflies or caterpillars I can see yet, lots of seed blowing in the wind, so the plants will be coming up in many many gardens 😁

Kowhai tree, this has yellow flowers in the spring and is bird attracting.

And the NZ flax popular the world over in gardens.

I am busy doing a crochet edge on a blanket Jenny has finished so will head back to that.

Happy stitching.
