Christmas on the beach

Despite wishing i was home in London ... Christmas in New Zealand turned out to be an unexpected treat. On boxing day the shepherd clan went to Oakura beach. It was a little stormy ... but the kids loved it nonetheless ... and their oh so grown up aunty thought it was pretty cool too!

And now for the sunset ... New Zealand is treating me well. Lovely to be spending time with family and soaking up endless days of sunshine.
