  • Saturday 22nd September

     

     

     

    I was feeling so miserable this morning when I woke at 5am I scuttled through my bag in the dark to find some Panadine.

    Then back to bed to try and sleep of the headache.

    Tim and the kids all headed off after breakfast to do some tailing.

    They were away all morning.

    It was so lovely and peaceful.

    I took my book out into the spa and tried to release some tension with the jets blasting on my back.

    I pottered around.

    Got the washing underway and hung a load on the line.

    The sunshine was so refreshing.

    Changed my bed sheets - got them washed, through the dryer and back onto the bed.

    Thought I might sleep better tonight if bed is actually made properly.

    Then I saw some large fins cruising around the wharf so I went down for a wander.

    I knew there were orca around so thought I would go check them out.

    They were not orca, just large dolphins.

    They were cruising leisurely, enjoying a languid spring day like I was.

    No jumping or frolicking so no pictures of them except for a small glimpse of fins as they circled between the wharf and 'Vision'.

    And as they cruised towards '88 South'.

    Perfect day happy

    Then I pulled a chair out to the back porch and sat a while, eating my breakfast, reading my book and enjoying a quiet peaceful soak in the sunshine.

    I went for a walk on my tredmill too.

    I have had two restful days, pretty much curled up in a fetal so decided I needed to make myself face life again.

    So with some fresh air, exercise and sunshine things have improved.

     

    The troops arrived back for a late lunch.

    Tim was thrilled with all they had gotten done.

    Mahalia went to sleep on the deck.

    Tim sat out there enjoying some sit still time.

    He was actually waiting for these guys to surface again.

    The orca finally did arrive back in the bay.

    This photos was taken with my telephoto lens - they were right over in the channel heading into Te Kopi.

     

    I started feeling a lot better this arvo.

    Headache finally abating.

    I made stuffed sausages for dinner with leeks in a white sauce and carrots.

    Shanni made Ambrosia.

    Jacob went out kayaking for the afternoon.

    Tim & Mahalia went out to check the horse and do other stuff and didn't get back home till 7:30pm.

    I was just heading out to look for them when they arrived back!
