Trying not to complain...

Well, we are back, and we had a lovely time in Nelson, however unfortunately our travel success did not improve. I am sad to say that in Nelson the computers broke down and we had to be checked on manually, then we had to wait to land in Wellington due to some planes with priority medical emergencies and what not, then ran out of fuel to safely land so had to divert to Palmy - you'd think that this would be good, and it sort of was, except that the car was in Wellington so Lee stayed on the plane to go and get that while I got off with the kids, however I neglected to get a house key from Lee and so was locked out of the house until he returned from Wellington... oh dear! Thankfully Carol picked me up from the Airport and took us to her place until Lee got home.
Just putting up some pics of the time away. Hope you enjoy.

Imogen's latest antics - climbing in the dolls cot at 10mths old.

Owen could make this spin all by himself...

And this one too. Actually told Daddy to get off because he made it too heavy for him to move on his own!

Great pictures. Good to see there were some really great times on the weekend despite all the dramas. Good thing that dolls cot came from the Gumeracha Toy Factory. It has withstood the test of time and toddlers. Love you all, Granny
