Mission impossible – not!

Posted on December 2, 2008November 27, 2009 by BritMumInNZ

Charli and Sophie love to climb. After ballet on Saturday morning we headed down the waterfront for a bit of adventure. Sophie gave it her best but found the stretches a little too much for her legs – though she’s so determined to give it a go every time we visit the wall! Charli was in her element as the little video clip shows! I did a couple of scales up the wall, whilst the girls sat brilliantly and watched (should have passed Charli the camera – maybe next time!).

We had also hoped to go kayaking on the harbour, but it was a little choppy to take the girls out, so we decided to go kite flying in Houghton Valley instead – great wind for it!
