Whangarei -Birthday Girl!

Whangarei - Cabin
Whangarei Beach

We set off bright and early - my birthday. Peter has already bought me a lovely new ring for my birthday so I am a lucky girl. Mum had given me a card to bring with me and my friend in NZ had given me a card too and Lynn had instructed her son to get me flowers for my birthday from her so I was not forgotten even if I am on the other side of the world! Unfortunately the rain has not stopped and it has been raining all day and in this part of the country we really needed sunshine very picturesque or so we are told. The rain has not stopped it is belting down as I type - what a day for my birthday - however we have done the usual quick nip around town and bought lunch. The cabin is lovely but only one room and really a bit clostrophobic for an all day sit in. We will venture out perhaps later to keep ourselves sane but there is hope tomorrow is to be sunshine and showers!
