We have finally arrived in our little country house in Martinborough in the North Island of New Zealand.

No wifi here so I will be in and out.

Not to worry though I can use my daughter’s HotSpot as long as I am fast!
We are staying in a perfectly New Zealand cottage -right in the middle of nowhere surrounded in vineyards.

I will be back tomorrow. The young people have taken over the kitchen and the scents are tantalising.

I will write more tomorrow.

It is rainy but warm here and cold, cold in Illinois.
Have a lovely day

Lovely and warm! Stay away from here-the midwest, frighteningly cold! Have fun.
It looks perfect! Hope you have a wonderfully relaxing break.
such lovely photos and I can imagine all the memories being created…what a wonderful family time. Happy New Year!
Charming niche! Manna for the soul.
Today in Chicago it is the coldest day so far this year:10 degrees.
I would be so tempted to stay. Forever.
Looks beautiful. I loved that style of house when I was there. Enjoy every precious moment!
I can sense the joy. Looks perfect and the sounds of little feet would make it even more so.
I am just in love with that house! Happy Holidays.
ah do enjoy the warmth, wet or dry. If my comments are coming in backwards in time it is because I am playing catch up!
