Climbing & winter garden

Well, we are now in the middle of winter here in New Zealand. It has been a lot milder, but also wetter than last year. Therefore, we have spent quite a bit of time at the climbing wall with our friend Yvonne perfecting our techniques! We took the camera with us the other week, so here are a few photos of us.

Our garden is looking great at the moment and we have been lucky to have lots of fruit on the trees this year. Freshly squeezed oranges from the garden for breakfast - what can beat that?
