We were reminded how fortunate we are living so close to Abel Tasman Park. Andy had fun taking a few photos around Kaiteriteri – only 25 minutes away!

Andy had an awesome paddle in Cable Bay with some friends. They were visited by a dolphin and later a penguin swam up to them to have a nosey!

We brought the digger in to landscape the gardens and create a playing area for the children
Admiring the skillful digger or dancing metal dinosaur as Hannah called it!

Karen and Ben
Yet another year of skiing at Rainbow. We love it and so do the kids. Both of them are doing really well. They both mastered the poma so I took them to the top using the t-bar and they didn’t fall off! It was brilliant to see their faces.
Cute little Hannah

We have changed the look of our Chalet. We have created a great outdoor space that has great turquoise sea views during the day and at night we can now sit and admire the lights of Nelson.

very early stages - still no balistrades
The finished deck is amazing.

We had an amazing weekend on the West Coast north of West Port. We shared a bache on the beach with the Deck family. The weather was wild!! which only added to the beauty and the mood of the coastline.

During the April School on our way back from Kaikora we stopped off to do some family cycling trips around Hanmer Springs.
Our blog is where we chronicle our family adventures, with friends and clients too. Surrounded as we are with Mountains, Forests, Rivers and Sea, we need to get out there more often, and when we do, we'll share it here. Enjoy the ride.
