We're on the edge of spring. Last weekend was beautiful and warm. This weekend, so far, has slipped back to cooler and windy. So... let's go back to last weekend. We went out for a day at the beach. If there's someone in ski wear at the beach, it is likely to be Barbara. I did not know this, but I am learning.


Someone stayed up late the night before, and kept his head down for a snooze on the ferry. The walk seemed to do the trick. Or maybe it was crossing the estuary in bare feet with crabs about. Someone doesn't like the idea of crabs underfoot.

Start burying.


Mid burying.



Done burying. They tell me it's comfy in there.



We had an appetite for our favorite. No, they're not burritos. Can't get those. They're kebabs, and they are pretty tasty. Dean says, stop with the pics already. Especially when I am about to discover that I've opened the wrong end and it's all going to come tumbling down. Very soon now. A couple of bites.

well this weekend it was term brake and my family wanted to go some where. we went to Abel Tasman a hiking spot near Nelson and we walked for ages and then we were at a beach. we ate lunch there but it wasn't the right spot so we moved to the next beach. to get there we had to cross a mucky estuary and my mom and dean didn't want to cross the river but me and my dad toughened up and did it so we finished first. then we were at the right beach and we gazed at an amazing jellyfish(picture below). then we visited a hut where you can stay overnight. after that my brother found a long hole in the sand and told me to cover him up in sand so i did.





after that we turned him into a mermaid(picture below).







this is the amazing graceful jellyfish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


then my mom,dad and bro turned me into a penguino.


then we took a water taxi back to are car and ate kababs in Motueka. by Andrew
