It's looking like a bumper season for citrus as I saw lots of trees laden with fruit. These two are along b-i-l's drive.

We're still in limbo, as far as living-out-of-suitcase goes, as the ship bringing the rest of our goods and chattels has, apparently, been to Noumea and is not due in Auckland for a few days yet. 

So we continue to walk the streets when weather allows and power through library books when it doesn't!

I must say, the local library system is brilliant...books can be ordered, borrowed, returned between ALL Auckland area libraries.

And down the road we currently live on there is a native bush park, which is where we're headed today, now that the sun's doing its thing.
