We haven't been walking over the Christmas break as life has been busy but decided to do one of our favourite walks this morning, A.H. Reed Park to the Whangarei Falls. It was 26oC. and most of the walk is in the shade. We also did the extra part of the walk by going up and over the Falls itself.

I don't know whether this will work but the link should go to the New Year's e-card I have been sending this year. I don't usually send New Year's cards but this was just too good not to send.
I SWIPED IT TO HIGHLIGHT, THEN DID A RIGHT CLICK, THEN GO TO "......jlcards......."

ReplyDeleteThe link didn't work for me alas
Sorry it didn't work for you.
DeleteI had to copy and paste the link, and for the third time I watched the adorable video, saw something new each time. Happy New Year to you both.
ReplyDeleteWe have watched it several times as well.
DeleteYes, the link works..highlighted it and chose open with Google.
ReplyDeleteA nice card to give a smile!
A walk at 26⁰ sounds perfect to me!! xx
It is a lovely walk. you must do it next time you visit Whangarei :)
ReplyDeleteI have sown two 'Marsol' Chestnuts, and will discretely find homes for them when they grow a bit. It's crazy that there are no Chestnut trees around here.
ReplyDeleteLooks like there could be room in churchyard.
DeleteThis waterfall is absolutely fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a happy and prosperous 2026.
There are a lot of waterfalls around Whangarei but this is the best and a nice walk from home.
DeleteIt's simply wonderful that you can walk from home to this beautiful waterfall :-)))
DeleteThese days we return to England just before the Chestnuts start to fall. We miss them; they were always an important part of Autumn life.
