Liz's parents visit |
And my cousin Caroline and her husband Jamie came for dinner |
The Easter Bunny even found us in Auckland ! |
Meeting Grammy and Grandpa at the airport. |
And Grampy is put straight to work on boat projects here with his able assistant |
Off to Waehiki Island for a brief stay at anchor. I went for a quick spearfish and shot a kawai which did fine for dinner. |
Talking about big projects ... After many hours of combing Liz managed to remove Johnathan's dreadlocks and he had his first haircut in five years. |
The hair heading to a charity. Johnathan's on the top. About 17" stretched out. |
Benjamin remains a big help on boat projects. |
The lazerette is a bit tight for just me but it is rather tight with my assistant there too, |
We had a bit of a road trip back up to Whangerei to see off our friends on Nirvana who are done cruising. Victoria, of course, made two cakes. |
Victoria, Gigi and Axel at Nirvana's going away party. |
This was a neat idea: a slideshow of highights from Nirvana's cruise from a projector on Nirvana to the mizzen sail on Rewa. |
It appears mandatory for every New Zealander to own at least one boat. The massive Westhaven Marina behind us. |
We are at the much more reasonable and very friendly Pier 21 Marina instead. |
Shiny new Harken spinnaker halyard blocks. One of the old spin blocks cracked so I have replaced them both. |
Great pictures of family and boat life...love the new haircut, Johnathan!
