Hot, sunny weather.

I spent two hours up with Maple last night.... she is still in Dubai time of course. I don't know where she gets the energy! Eventually we both fell asleep on the Lazy Boy (Very comfortable!).

We all went out to Maketu beach today. The children had a blast in the sea and on the beach. The boys snorkelled for Paua and Mussels and we had a tasty bbq that night. Bailee loved the shellfish so much... it was hilarious to see her mow them down! Oscar was more into the salad, (So they swapped!)

Here is Flora. One of Bailee and Oscar's favourite NZ friends. She loves playing with the trio, (And is very good at looking after them!) Maple just loves her and fell asleep minutes after this picture.
