Rotorua - Russell (Bay of Islands)

Our drive from Rotorua to Russell was quite busy! It seems that in NZ everybody wants to go away at Easter time - just like home really!

But it was worth it - the view from the house is to die for and the house isn't bad either!

This shot is from the veranda where we can relax while having breaky or playing Backgammon!

Nice one of Jan and Martyn!!

Even on hols the housework has to be done - hanging the washing between the lavender patches - quite pleasant really.

We will be here until Tuesday, Lyall's Birthday, and then we are not sure where we are going from there! Lyall is off fishing this afternoon so stay tuned for the fishing photos - we are planning to have fish for tea - No pressure though Lyall!!!!

Missing you all. Love from the mums and dads. xxxx
