Avocados and Bicycles!

It is springtime!!! In this beautiful weather we went on a bikeride and avocado picking down on the flats. We got a whole bag of beautiful green avocados - perfect for breakfast!


Ice cream break at the beach!



Time to head home after a day in the sun.

And here is a snap of supper tonight, tante Merethe:


Self-picked avocados, grape tomatoes, spicy red sauce with salt & pepper. Mmmmmm......

Visit to Government House!

I was invited to Government House to receive an award for work with Women's Health. It was the Governor of South Australia who oversaw the award ceremony and....wow, it was an amazing visit. The grounds and house is beautiful! Have a look at the link. It felt really special to be invited in to drink champagne served on silver trays by waiters in tailcoats and white gloves!

Brødskiva med leverpostei!!!

Her i huset er gleden stor når vi får pakke fra Besta i posten - da vet vi nemlig alltid at der er bokser med leverpostei oppi! Brødskive med leverpostei, majones og gastromat er favoritten til Lottie - ingen over, ingen ved siden av!!!


Den lille mygga vår er en storspiser tro det eller ei...når hun lager seg ei brødskive på egenhånd er den gjerne trippel!!!

Liljer

Disse liljene vokser som ugress nederst i hjørnet mot bekken bak i hagen. De pynter opp i rotet her hjemme... :-)

School Camp at Narnu Farm

What a lovely few days at Narnu Farm! What was the best thing about camp?

We learned to plough and make butter, and got to look after all the animals.
- Agnes

The most fun was going horse riding and sleeping in the bunkbeds.
- Elliot


Learning about ploughing.

Lining up for a trail ride on the horses.

Baby chicks.


Top of the morning to ya!!!


Onion, the naughty goat!

Feeding the calfs were hard work!

Butter in the making!

Here it is - selfmade butter for the sandwich!


Tight hugs!!!! Finally home!
It is great that they had a fabulous camp - but oh so good that they are back home again!

(thanks for the wonderful photos Maria and Pedro)

Stylin'

Finally we have got hot water again!!! Winter is definitely NOT the right time to be without hot water...brrrrr!

It has been almost two months since our electrical hot waster system died on us and we we decided to convert to gas - and after what seems like a small eternity, the gas company have now completed the installation to our property. H-o-o-r-a-y!

Elliot is celebrating with self-styled fabulous hair :-)
