I kinda forgot to mention.... I flew to Palmerton North Yesterday!
I lied all day about where I was yesterday!
hee hee hee
I wanted to surprise our son Mike and my girlfriends ....
ABOVE: Mt Ruapehu... stunning... not a lot of snow but still stunning. I liked being able to see the plane's engine.... I hate flying so being able to keep and eye on the engines was kinda... comforting.
All planes in New Zealand are flying at 18,000 feet right now to keep under the ash cloud from the erupting volcano in Chile. I was nervous about flying .... but it sure beat driving for 7 hours one way!
ABOVE: how typical... fog over the Waikato! Sooo glad I don't live there in winter.
ABOVE: Mt Ngarahoe and Mt Tongariro... another stunning photo! It really was a lovely flight.
I will come back later and fill you in on what we got up to last night...
ONWARD...
Last night: Chris D, Sandra, Anne and I went to Bridesmaids at the movies. I'd been before but was only too happy to go again... its such a good movie.
After that Anne had to go home but the rest of us went out to Sandra's home and had a few drinks and LOTS of laughs!
Got back to Chris D's home around 11.30 and hit the sack.
This morning we are meeting in town for a walk followed by morning tea at our 'usual' coffee shop.. and I will be THERE with them for a change!! I love that.

After morning tea Chris D and I went looking for a new gift shop with a view to selling them my cards...well we couldn't find it so went to another more established gift shop to ask where the new one was... got yakking to the owner of that shop (as ya do) and she bought all me cards! Rather chuffed about that as this shop is well established, very popular and in a very good shopping street. SCORE... I am so thrilled.
Chris D and I are having a quiet afternoon before going to Sandra's for dinner... yaaaa.
End of Day: dinner was pizza! Very nice too... havn't had pizza in months. Mike and his girlfriend Joyce came too.... so got to spend time with him too.
While at Sandra's I filed down my lovely nails too... got sick to death of not being able to type!
nite nite.
