On Friday we headed up to
Ohakune to spend the weekend with friends from South Africa. We last saw them at the beginning of 2004 (Rachel was almost 3 years old) when we moved away from the Natal Coast. They have been in NZ since April 2007 (just a few months more than us).

Yes, there is a lot of carrot farming in the area. This tiny town (although MUCH bigger than
Hawarden) has 4 carrot washing and sorting factories.

Rachel and Caitlin were best of friends from the first minute. They had a wonderful weekend together.

Ruth followed her sister up the climbing ropes.

And Hannah even got to enjoy a slide.

Hannah has gotten so mobile that we had to put her in the camping cot (
portable-cot) and so Ruth and Rachel slept "top and tail" (which was great fun for Ruth).
