Ladies that lunch....(and Steve!)

As a rude departure from our regular Friday lunch with lady friends(!), on Wednesday 15th April we had our farewell luncheon with the lovely ladies of Kerikeri!

We have met some great girls whilst here and they have all been so very kind and friendly that we hope to keep in touch and maybe see some of them in the UK or France in the future (or maybe back in Kerikeri if they'll have us!).

Our two "bezzy" mates, Jane and Annie also generously gave us lovely gifts of a book on the North Island with beautiful aerial photographs of the views and two bookmarks handmade locally.

We had a very nice lunch washed down (of course), with a glass of Marsden Estate Sav Blanc.
The restaurant was set in lush native gardens and after our lunch we had a pleasant stroll around the grounds before heading back for a nanny nap!!
