I have had a really good time here in Blenheim, with a few outings here and there to Havelock and Picton. Here are a few photos to document it! |
| The lovely Diamond (I think man-made) & Gold cross necklace Joseph gave me for Christmas, to remind me of him while I am in India! Not entirely sure if I will be able to wear it visibly because Christianity is a minority in India. |
 |
| Stopped in Renwick on our way to Havelock to see some relatives. |
 |
| Such a beautiful bay! |
 |
| Just a short walk from my relative's batch! |
 |
| Joseph conked out from exhaustion haha. |
 |
| So cool! It is almost like the bridge in Rome (Ponte Milvio), where people put 'Love Locks' on it - padlocks to symbolise a couple's love. Not sure if you could equate a smelly old boot to love... |
 |
| One of my highlights of being down here in Marlborough, is getting to meet Celeste, and her beautiful baby boy Elon! He is my second-cousin. Such a cutie, and his mummy is so amazing. |
 |
| I have had the pleasure of waking up to this gorgeous face for the past couple of mornings - Jess! |
 |
| We had a good family outing to Picton with my parents + brother, dad's two brothers (and one of my aunts), my cousin, my nan, and a friend. |
 |
| My dad and his two brothers, Greg and Stuart, with my nan, Audrey. |
 |
| I have a feeling I am going to see quite a few more interesting advertisements like this in India. This is a billboard for a bead shop. Hehe. |
 |
| Good ol' sunburn. And this is before the red hotness really set in. It burns so bad!! |
 |
| Today we found this awesome dress my nan had been sewing maybe twenty or so years ago! I am going to be wearing this, just need to make a few adjustments and finish a few points off! |
We are catching the ferry tomorrow at a much more reasonable hour of 8am, and then will pass through Palmerston North, Whanganui and Ratihi on the way back to Tauranga.
See you soon!
