Friday the 29th!




We are on our last day here in Hamilton! We have enjoyed the city and all the parks! Luke likes the Zip lines that each park has. The kids are adjusting to lots of walking and trekking!


We have swam in Hot Pools, gone to Raglans (twice!), vivited with the Taylor family from home(they are SO grown up!) , discovered take aways and yummy fish 'n chips. Raglans was a highlight as the kids loved the waves and splashing. Next time I will remember a change of clothes. The beach was a back sand and it went on for ever! The tide was out and we could have walked all day! Ellie managed to scrape up her knee really good (and tear her pants) at a skate park and the kind lady at the Raglan info centre was helpful with a bandaid.


We hope to get a cell phone today as well as some wetsuits and a Chiily bin- a.k.a. a cooler! I hope we don't get too lost on the way to the Warehouse (wal-mart). Love to all.....
