This is how it will be for the next few days. Light speed.
My brother is a hard task master and like me is a morning person! so I am working fast for you.
Here is yesterday in pictures.
First a shower in my godmothers outdoor shower – I love it!
Buried my Dad.
Laid about amongst the graves and told stories to my two Littlies. My brother brought a wee dram for dad. He did like a tipple.
Went for a walk.
And now back into the outdoor shower and on the road again.
Go here for a last look at sunset in PekaPeka. The most beautiful sunset with sounds of the sea on the West Coast.
This morning I took a video of the sunrise on the East coast. I hope to load that for you for tomorrow!
Running! Flying! Laughing!! Unstoppable! That’s who we are! You and I.
Now out into the cold sea scented air for a hot shower in the garden! The best!

Oh I felt almost back on the farm with those lovely photos of cattle. But of course, I loved the palm tree. Autumn in full glory. How long did you wait for that beautiful bird. Egret maybe?
An outdoor shower. Sounds positively deliciously naughty! And who are those white birds nesting in the tree of the last shot?
What a day – glad you shared your stories near dad
I imagine New Zealand is beautiful in the fall. Thank you for sharing your pictures. That’s special of you both to be able to say goodbye to your dad in your own ways.
It was a lovely day outing the graveyard. Really quite perfect!
This is just the most beautiful place. I can easily imagine you growing up here
Yes. So lucky I was!
I’m sure your dad appreciated the special drink.
I love the outdoor shower!
He used to have a dram with Father Murphy every Sunday!
My Irish step mother (who cooks lunch for some Carmelite Sisters) goes out for lunch with the Canon (who’s been posted to Cornwall from America) and they enjoy a few drinks afterwards. She says she’s like the naughty aunt!
I just thought …my step-mother’s family name is Murphy 🤣
that is kind of funny!!
It sounds like a busy but satisfying day. The graveyard looks so peaceful, a perfect place to tell stories to your little ones. My daughter has an outdoor shower. I love it.
I love the outdoor shower too- especially when it is extra hot!
Wonderful photos Celi … ah NZ such a beautiful place! How lovely to go and see your dad .. hugs
