New Kitten!!


Here's Bree our SPCA kitten. She was a little shy at first but has really settled in now. She loves to eat what ever we're eating, hiding under the table, chasing her tail and sleeping.

Our Valley


Just to the right of our house (fourth from the back) is a track up through our valley. We took it the other night up through the bush to the stand of pine trees, up on the right. While we rested under the tree I thought I saw a glossy black dog, but it was a wild piggy with a long curly tail. My first wild pig.

Steve at the centre of NZ, which we can see from our dining room window. The photos here are taken from this point.


The view of the harbour and the boulder bank from the Centre of NZ.


Maitai Valley, just down the bottom of our street, great walks and cycle rides from here.
