Monday was a public holiday, so DH and I took a drive to the coast. The skies were blue, the water was warm (I paddled my feet in it) - but brrr, the wind was so cold. I think by the time summer truly arrives, it will be time for it to go again.
Here's a couple of photos from the drive. The island (Kapiti) in the bottom photo is a nature reserve. It is one of many islands in New Zealand that they try and keep pest-free, so the native species have a chance to flourish. I haven't been there, but hope to some day soon.


Hope your week is off to a great start!

Lovely part of the world the Kapiti Coast.
I would love to take a walk with you in your beautiful country.
Beautiful pictures of the coast.
Your sampler is looking great! You are making great progress!
What a stunning sky - I love the names of places in New Zealand.
Beautiful stitching, looks like you are closing in on a finish :)
We're having really gloomy weather so I gazed at your pics and imagined I was there.
What a lot of progress you have made on your sampler.
Isnt it a lovely change to have summer weather... make the most of it and keep showing off our wonderful scenery
Beautiful pics Rowyn, in this post and the previous one. Also, I can't believe how much your little niece has grown, she's a cutie pie!
You're making some lovely progress Rowyn. It's so pretty.
Lovely photos from your drive. Oh how I wish I was there!
That's one amazing sampler Rowyn! You're stitching it beautifully. And what a beautiful place for a drive!
I love seeing the photos of your country! Everything is so pretty. One of my neighbor's sons, an electrician, had a job in NZ and loved it, but came back here (to no job and no prospects for a job...) because of his girlfriend. His mom is thrilled but I think he's crazy! LOL He loved it in NZ.
Lovely progress!
I love your sampler, great progress. What a beautiful colour the sky is in your pics, I can only dream of that type of view here in wet, gloomy Wales
Wow, such pretties... things and places. Congrats on the lovely views -- both inside and outside. :)
You're really coming along nicely with this sampler Rowyn!
Great pictures. TFS :o)
I am really loving your sampler. Such beautiful photos of the coastline.
