Tasman Bay - Day one


Gina and Martin have 3 pet sheep
I can't believe it's Christmas eve tomorrow. Although Gina did her very best to decorate the cottage with a Christmas tree, Christmas lights and little santas and balls all over. Christmas in summer is never going to be Christmas to us. Gina is our host, she owns Golden farm and the cottage they built next to their house. We are sitting on a hilltop, they view is unbelievable. It's dark now and I can see all the lights from Richmond and Nelson.
After a morning at the pool, we spent the day in Nelson which is a very cool city, has a bit of a provence feeling over it. 
After lunch and shopping, Louis finally got his Hawaianas and a very cool Burton cap, Madeleine bought a note book and has been working on her diary ever since, we went on Tahunanui beach. Very nice :) 
Some more swimming in the pool and a barbecue and the day has come to an end. 
You know it all now :) 

The pool is very nice and at 30 degrees even mamma gets in

Sweethearts (most of the time)
