We spent three wet and wonderful days relaxing and catching up on sleep etc. at Piha. We have noticed the cold weather and have missed the warmth and sunshine of Uganda.The first photo is taken from the deck of their place at Piha, it was lovely to see the sea and we never tired of the view. It was mainly cold for us so we didn't quite make it to the beach.
It was lovely to meet Beck, she was so easy to talk to that it felt like we have known her for a long time. The second photo is of Chris and Beck on the deck.
The third photo shows us all.
We flew to Hawkes Bay on Saturday morning to be met by Ruth, Sherrilyn & Deanne
, along with Betty & Colin. It was great to finally get to Havelock North.Sunday was spent catching up with folk from church and by the end of the day we were all 'talked out'.
Today, Monday, we visited the dentist for a check-up and gathered some stuff from home to be sorted through.
We are a bit worried about how much weight we may put on as we have been eating really well, but I guess we can sweat it out when we return home to Uganda.
Tomorrow I am going to HNHS to visit old haunts and Marilyn is looking forward to going to her old study group. Then we travel to Waikanae to catch up with family there which we are looking forward to.
It does feel strange being here and we do miss the boys, especially the two birthdays of Joshua and Matthew last week. Also, no blog would be complete without mention of Raghma. We do miss her also and continue to pray that she will recover from her pneumonia.
Till next time, God Bless
