Photos are ON!

I am very excited about this entry because I have many photos to share! Ready?? Here we go... (by the way these are ALL untouched/unedited)









 Quick snapshot from the side of the road! What a view!



Snapshot from inside the car... still - what a view!
(I'm sorry I forget the name of the beach in the photo)


The bluest blue.


With roadside scenery like this, I could drive for days... and probably WILL!





Now here are some pictures of where I've been living!!
 
Please excuse the mess. Consider these to be candid photos x_x


Best bedroom EVER. It is almost full of bed, as a bedroom should be!





Veggie patch outside the door.




The view from the deck!




Looks like a simple walkway, but to me it's a beautiful pathway.


Taking a "time-out" from the hard life in Paihia with a "special" coffee over in Russell.
Taken with a friend from Alaska :)

WARNING: The following photos may be a little disturbing (and risque - sorry I did not mean to show so much leg but if I didn't it would defeat the purpose of the photo). Here is just one of many "marks" that NZ has left on me (even this one I consider positively!).

A few days ago, I slipped and fell on some rocks (I was literally between a rock and... another rock). Yesterday I looked down and saw this:



Close-up! Ouch.

And to end on a positive note:
Here was a picture taken from the deck today... sailboats galore because there is a race going on!


Thank you for letting me share this with you! Have a wonderful weekend!
