It can only happen in NZ!! Duck race in the river and hundreds of people gathered to put a bet on for one of the ducks. Duck as is a yellow plastic duck!! We tried to fit in and did exactly the same and had a blast. Our duck didn't win:-(
In the morning Pernilla went on the local Garden Trail to have a look at open homes. Some of those gardens were amazing and some was just like any bush walk. Got some inspirations as you can see on the pictures. A shame out climate has 6 month of horrible weather which makes most tropical plants die. If there's no job for Pernilla to come back to at Pergo we would have no problem staying.
So hot today we got a bit tired of the heat and had to go inside for a while in the afternoon until it had cooled down a little so that we could have our lamb dinner outside.
