Sunday, wife and I did a little road trip to Cambridge, but on the way stopped at a closer town called Te Kauwhata. I've seen a few pretty towns in New Zealand and this one only 50 minutes out of Auckland is now in my top 10. It's a quaint little main road within a minutes walk from the rail tracks (god knows why there isn't an Auckland rail service here), with modern houses tucked away in the little valleys within walking distance to the main shops. Wife also found a new tree to plant at a large garden center on the way to Cambridge.
While it's one of our coldest days in the last 6 months, we still managed to have ice cream once we made it to Cambridge.
Today I have to remove all the internal walls and floor coverings from my bedrooms so that a special waterproof coating can be applied by a licensed tradesman. The council requires certain certification which means my handyman solutions (because I can read instructions, but haven't done the manufactures course) doesn't cut it.
