The holiday has been OK so far…but there seems to be a bit too much wine tasting (mum) and photo taking (dad) for my liking. However today was different…
8am – Woke up next to my Dad this morning – yay!
9am – Bath time but this time was a lot more fun than usual.
10:30am – Travelling in the car is a bit boring. Time for a snooze…need to shut out my mum’s singing. I think she thinks it helps me sleep!!
Midday – Stopped off for some lunch in Fairlie. I had some of my Mum’s leek and potato soup and some sweet potato. The place was called Eat Deli and Bar – it was fab! I got a massive high chair to sit in but the best was still to come…a big playroom! I’ve played a lot with the Lamaze butterfly (thanks Aunty Kerryann) but I wanted something new. There was a snakes and ladders rug, a push along truck and some soft toys. I played for about an hour until my Mum and Dad thought they had better leave before we outstayed our welcome.
4pm – We arrived at Lake Tekapo and was promised hot spring action. But only after I had a nap…boring!!
5:30pm – Yay more hot springs.
6:30pm – I went duck and rabbit spotting.
7pm – Dinner was my first taste of avocado, some more sweet potato and some chicken. Mum and Dad had wine…and some food.
8pm – Bed time. Here’s hoping tomorrow is as much fun!!

Wow James it looks like you’re having the best time. I’m looking forward to January and your opinions on various wines as it looks like you’ve learnt a lot 😉
The hot springs look bliss, you look like you’re really enjoying them…I’m sure Hastings swimming pool won’t come anywhere close, but we can imagine!
Daddy’s photos are amazing and help brighten up the grey October days back here in the U.K.
Have the most wonderful time and keep the blogs coming they’re fab 🙂
