MONDAY i got to ride horses on a beach today!!! aneka has two horses and she invited me over to ride them! the weather was less than ideal but we made it happen and it was awesome. we got soaked because the tide was higher than expected, the horses got spooked a few times, and i held on for dear life and squealed like a little girl when i cantered a few times, what an great experience! i had a little photo shoot with peppy.

TUESDAY boxing in the morning. afternoon took my car into jono (as he is a mechanic) to see if he could figure out where the oil leak is coming from. went to check out McLaren's Falls as it was a beautiful day.
 |
| it was like a mini rainforest in there! |
 |
| falls but not the mclaren's falls...didn't actually get a photo of them, camera died, oops |
went to laura h's house and played table tennis and then went for an adventurous walk, we got somewhat lost, wanted to risk running across peoples lawns but there were gates and things.
 |
| you sneaky laura! |
WEDNESDAY worked at gelato and had youthgroup with BBC at night.
THURSDAY worked at gelato and in the eve went for a night adventure walk with jono around the mount, a somewhat treacherous excursion as there was no moon and my night vision isn't the cream of the crop..haha, finished the night with some yum BK
FRIDAY worked at gelato and then went to youth at city and after went to the girls flat where we played riveting rounds of mafia. and then i headed out to te puna to have my first night of house sitting. they have a pretty sweet set up out there, a designated movie room with a projector screen and a spa. yusssss.
SATURDAY played a big game of Sasquatch hunt with the BBC youth at night outside in a paddock. which is essentially hide and seek but the sasquatch are trying to get you and your team is trying to find the sasquatch. the hunt was followed by a big bonfire.
SUNDAY was mothers day here and jono asked me to help him make lunch for his mom. so we ended up making a lovely meal of chunky vege soup, and fresh bread. somewhere in there a citric acid challenge came about and needless to say, all the skin on the inside of my mouth began to peel for several days.. christine wanted to go to the papamoa hills to have a nice walk. so campbell, christine, jayden, jono, and i all pilled into a car and headed to the hills. it was lovely! and the view stunning. a dirt fight broke out at some point which just made it all the more fun :) on the way home we stopped to see campbells mom and had a little visit there.
city church in the eve ended the day. special thanks to campbell for these photos!
