We found the most adorable little lake on our walk the other day. Madam was dying to get into the little boat that just shouted ‘play in me’.

More pics form the awesome lakeside at Telapo. It was so lovely down there and being able to take the dog was the icing on the cake. Not all of NZ is particularly canine friendly so having him along was a bonus. Madam was so happy to have nana there to play with. The Church…

We had a long weekend down at Tekapo this week. A little bach. No phone or internet. Lots of fresh air and paddling. Amazing skies. Both day and night. The lake was freezing cold but it didn’t stop madam from paddling away happily. She even convinced the dog to get his feet wet. The evenings…
