it’s been raining all day.  quite big fat wet rain.

so we all got up late and then headed over to altura for our 18 month anniversary brunch.

after much eating we came back and the elderly (jane and me) had a sleep for another hour.

then, because we’re rubbish at staying in we decided we needed to go out and do some geocaching.  we went to parry kauri park and museum.  the museum closed early just as we got there, but we could still enjoy some of the outdoor exhibits and toilets

the walk was shot but really nice.  and i eventually got my technology working enough to find a geocache.

    Good to see you are enjoying the Heinz Tomato ketchup. Sorry to see you are experiencing heavy rain. We are enjoying lovely spring weather in South Twyford. Cannot believe it is 18 months already since you left. We still have our raffle prize !!!!
