Much more better!

The direction the scales are moving in, that is. 80.5kg this morning.
Here are the promised pix from the weekend.

The Pinot Noir vertical tasting tray at Vynfield - the house in the background was built in 1908, in Lyall Bay, Wellington. It was moved over the hill a few years ago. The vertical collection was 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 - the 2006 is definitely too young to be let out of the bottle on it's own! Okay, so I had a couple of sips...

The view from our room - no people, just cows and pukekos.


The car and bikes - we're such urban sportspeople!

Have you ever seen the movie Hotel New Hampshire - that place reminds me of it. Just gorgeous, well except for the red wine (I'm allergic to it).

What are pukekos please? I will try google.

I know, a New Zealand Swamp Hen.

Pukekos are too pretty to be called swamp hen's.

The place looks lovely and peaceful.

hehe.... should have come visit me. Funny I was in the same places, just doing different things. We did our bike riding around Carterton (we've got a tandem now - yip geeks!) It was gorgeous weather for it though.
