Christmas and New Year 2013/2014 in NZ

We won't worry about trying to catch the black one...

Christmas spent with Liam on the Taylor's family farm. Great to see him at home and loving the animals.

Pal, Liam's best farm friend

Moving the horses

But we haven't forgotten you Jed! And he certainly hadn't forgotten Jeroen - after 18 months of not seeing each other, a long cuddle was in order.

Instant Dad's boy


Father - son mechanics

Early January after New Years celebrated in Wanganui, we tootled off on the Forgotten World Highway. Firstly a stop to see Karen in Owhango and her dog 'My Girl', the dog with the phantom pregnancy.

Mount Damper Falls - full summer so very limited water display

Back to the Naki and Burgess One Motel. Residents Tui watched over as a we shared a BBQ together with Mam and Dad.

I love Tui


Off to see the Lights at Pukekura Park. Always fun to go through the fluorescent section.

Mind that tree Jeroen!





3 x 4 (plus 1) reunited. We missed you Trina.

A weekend with Katelyn in New Plymouth. She enjoyed a ride on Liam's farm with Ben.

So happy

New friends

A bonus 3 weeks for me in NZ then back to Lalaland to join Jeroen.
