Self Drive

We grabbed a rental car today and circumnavigated the island of Tahiti in French Polynesia  We saw caves, churches, maares, monuments, sea, storms, statues and surfies.

While we saw many magnificent landscapes we were surprised that there were few white sandy beaches.

We started out at an historic site

Backseat Driver

We have driven up and back to Sydney on the M1 a few times recently. This evening we followed this ute that had an enthusiastic canine backseat driver.

20 Something Snaps - Waiting for Mail

We covered 800km in our Saturday and Sunday drives this week and I took hundreds of photos of our natural and built environment here in New South Wales. 

Robert was very patient when I asked him to slow down so I could take photos of some of the letterboxes we passed on our travels. He even backed up on a couple of occasions.

I think it's time we ditched our boring mail receptacle and followed the lead of those who have individualised their letterboxes. In case you want to join us you may take inspiration from some of the following.

Cousin Catchup

Wiltshire here we come. Looking forward to a catchup with Cousin Gerard in Wiltshire.

Tootling along the way in our rental car, hope the GPS knows the way. 

A Welcome Distraction

Around 9 o'clock today I got a phone call from a four year old who said "Gummy, can we come for a swim."  Of course I replied that that would be lovely so he, his Dad and two brothers came over for a swim and a few other activities. 

Our visit of course started with a fortyfying snack of juice and biscuits which little boys can always devour.  Unfortunately I didn't get any photos in the pool because I was enjoying the water with the boys. I did, however, manage to snap a couple of other activities.

Only one egg so far today
