    Kakanui Day 2

    April 19, 2025 in New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    20 degrees, sunny, light wind
    We are all at Kakanui except Ben, Tom and little Sam who are at Pohara putting a new roof on Mouse’s house. Kylie and Archie arrived at 11am.
    Quick trip to Oamaru for groceries and a rugby ball for the boys (they always play touch), back home for walks on the beach, Neil and older Grandson’s went mussel and paua hunting but unfortunately the low tide was extremely high so hard to access.
    Toby and Hamish went out for a 2nd surf, Paul went for a big run and Archie had a great time playing in the ocean. The boys had their game of touch rugby then cards.
    I have received wonderful birthday messages and presents, thank you everyone.
