Christmas in NZ

After flying in on Christmas Eve and a chance to settle in, we woke to a late morning start to unwrap our presents. I think Mark was the most excited to get a new driving helmet and his "slicer-dicer" that he had admired so much on TV.
Katie prepared a wonderful lunch with turkey, ham , potato bake and salads. The Slicer-dicer was put to use making. Mountain of coleslaw.
The warm and sunny afternoon was spent at the O'Connors property nearby watching the kids (big and small) enjoy the pool and water guns. The traditional cricket match was replaced by soccer until your correspondent twisted an ankle. The sun went down around 9.30 as we made our way home
