ReplyDeleteThose photos are great. Your granddaughter is so cute - just the same age as my great granddaughter!! And I am amazed at that 'beach hut' - there must be a lot of driftwood on your beaches!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos! Between your photos and my friend Margaret's photos, I am getting a real good feel for Kiwi Land!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great driftwood palace! And sky!
ReplyDeleteAnd your granddaughter is wonderful.
Happy New Year, Alexia!
