Yesterday (Wednesday), we went tramping through the bush! (For you non-Kiwis, that means we walked/hiked through a densely-forested wilderness area). It actually is only a 5 minute bus ride from our place. It is on acreage by the beautiful house you see here (Riccarton House). They also had a “twilight farmer’s market” where we bought fresh, yummy strawberries and tasted a little local wine (they had to twist our arms for that one!). Lynda went on walk with other spouses/partners of Erskine and Canterbury Fellows, touring the Botanical Gardens and an exhibit for the upcoming flower show (more on that next week). Kenn just worked. New language terms we learned: “I’m shouting this meal” means I’m paying for it. “Up to scratch” means up to snuff. Tomorrow is Friday. We both will work hard so we can enjoy our trip this weekend to the West Coast.
