We’re out of here!

Bahhhhhhh!

5 day’s of rain in a row.

3 day’s of not leaving the house.

There’s only so much scrabble, baking, painting and children’s T.V. a person can stomach.

I’m done with the washing, the hoovering, the ironing and the scrubbing of fly poo from the window sills.

I’m packing our suitcases and we’re leaving on a jet plane tomorrow for…

Auckland!

Not exactly a long way to go, but a change of scene and a lot cheaper than flying to Oz. We figured there’s plenty of wet weather activities (but after this week’s deluge we’re hoping the odds are for clearer skies next week) and we’ve never been to Auckland Zoo, Kelly Tarlton’s, Sky Tower, Snow Planet… the list goes on.

We have 8 night’s away staying in Brown’s Bay and are really looking forward to exploring.

I just wish I could bin the colds before we depart (pity whoever sits near us on the plane!).

  1. Have a great time and be thinking of you..the zoo sounds good and sure lots of things to do.Hope the colds go away soon.Take lots of piccies !!

  2. I can totally understand your cabin fever! We’re hating the rain because now is the time when our olives need sun and heat to fully ripen. The harvest will be late this year — because of our mild summer, and now because of all this rain!!

  3. Been stuck indoors for days on end is no fun, so cool that you can pop up to Auckland and spend some time hanging out there, Kelly’s is great – especially the penguin section! Have lots of fun!!

  4. Heh – if you come over to Aus – Brisbane right now is raining, so you could see more raindrops. Better to stay within your own zone of rainy days! πŸ™‚
