Wandering Minstrel Hamish arrives

Busy February coming up, lots of visitors.

First to arrive is Hamish the middle son of our great friends the Jeffcotts. He is travelling around NZ for 8 weeks and singing for his supper by busking as he goes. But before he set off he helped us move back into the apartment in Pacific Palms - so nice to be back. It has been very hot so it is lovely to have a pool to cool off in again.
He was a wee bit jetlagged when he first got here, but soon was drinking tea and planning his big trip!

 


He brought Malcolm his long awaited Welsh shirt, in time for the big match - Wales vs England in the 6 Nations. They were both glued to the screen but unfortunately got quieter and quieter as the second half progressed. Not to be Wales day!



Before he set off we showed him round the area and has a couple of evenings out with friends. The Emily Smith concert was great (thanks to David my brother in law for letting us know!)
 
 
We also had a lovely day canoeing and paddle boarding down the Waiparo river and enjoyed a beautiful swim and BBQ at John and Liz's.
 






Poor Hamish learnt the lesson that you need suncream on your feet!
