On Tuesday morning My flat mate Hannah and I took off on out way down the coast to
Waiuku, her home town. I got to spend a lovely afternoon with her mum, dad, brother and his
fiance and her grandma and grandpa. We had a huge Christmas feast of steak, pork and NZ
crayfish, yum!. Then on Wednesday Hannah and I drove out to the coast and went to
arua bay, big bay and the
Wailuku lighthouse- all incredible sights to see. Sadly it was very overcast and even got down poured on a couple of times. I was also lucky enough to get to go swimming…with all of my clothes on (I feel off a rope swing). Then last night we went out to a fabulous restaurant that over looked the ocean. It was delicious food and an even better view.
This morning we woke up and headed back to the city. It’s a beautiful Christmas eve…even though it
doesn’t feel like it at all. You have no idea how nice it was to spend some time with such a wonderful family around Christmas. They were way too kind to me, and I don’t know how I can ever repay them.
Here are lots of photos.
