Cocktail Eve

Friday evening dusks and we're ready to ride. Paul & Ray spent all afternoon on the roof erecting the deck sail... using some ingenious anchoring techniques such as these 2 wine barrels filled with water and a Subaru Impreza on the other side of the house.

We converted the lounge into a dance floor, complete with decks for DJ Danson... mmm sexy bass.


So there was really nothing left to do but start drinking!!! and what better way to start than
5x Lamborghini Fiamanté!
Here's me having my first one... blue flame is sexsay!


Here's a cocktail menu sneak preview!
(thanks to John for his help with this)


Can't wait till tomorrow!

Lost Lake of the Dinousaurs

T-Rex attack- run for your life!

The Pteranodon swoops- will you be saved?



Ahhh, chocolate swap monster!


Enough of that! Lake Tarawera isn't really lost but people have dropped $x,000,000 on lake front properties trying to create the illusion they're lost, when in reality they're only 20mins drive from the sulphurous lures of Rotovegas.
I've got to say it's extra special hard to pretend you're lost when the $3k coffee machine (including electric grinder) comes in from the car (some of the best coffee I've had in days!)


Here's Jo, Me, Jan & Vick on our walk around the blue lake - gorgeous. There are no boys in this shot because they've all gone shopping. (There's something so wrong with that sentence!)

The boys did get a little more extreme after lunch. It was quite amusing to be sitting on the deck enjoying the serenity of the lake views only to have it disturbed by a soobie driving past (as fast as possible) dragging a guy on a mountain board!

Here Jan & Charlie look up the directions to the refuse station, luckily it wasn't far because we had to stack it all in unwieldly piles in order to fit it in the car!

Things learned on this trip:
-'Lost Valley of the Dinousaurs' is an awesome board game
-Running into a hedge while playing drunken spotlight is not a good idea
-Taking a running jump onto a chest high pile of mattresses -also not a good idea
-I can't play Pétanque
-10 people can eat 4.5kg of bacon

"I bet you wont fit in there!"

There is a cupboard in our dinning room
a completely random cupboard
approximately the size of a squashed human
witness...


Kareen in the cupboard; Me in the cupboard

Paul in the cupboard; Sarah in the cupboard; Matt in the cupboard;


Me AND Sarah in the cupboard...

we kinda broke the cupboard... but that's ok cause now everyone can fit in:

including our T-Rex
now we have another entry to the garage (and a baby booster seat)

Paulo on the booster seat with the cupboard in the lounge

Sarita in the Cupboard
Sarah acting like a T-Rex
boys making wheels for the cupboard


Boys in the newly pimped cupboard


On the street just before we got yelled at,
who would of though people were trying to sleep at 11pm on a Monday night!?


James' helmet is the Steez
Glitter incrusted kevlar, sexsay


Me & Jane on the cupboard in the street.

Unfortunately non of the action shots of the boys riding in the cupboard down the hill came out... cause it was too dark :(
oh well
good times
