SIT Corpor8 Rowing

Work participated in the Invercargil Corpor8 Rowing Challenge. I was lucky enough to be picked a team member. Here are a few photos of the training days, indoor event and the final challenge day. We came 2nd in the G class.

HOLIDAY

Yes, I needed a break from work, and I did say that I would do a tramp every year and this year I hadn't hardly even thought about one..... so off Kaye and I went. First via the Catlins then making our way to Dunedin very slowly (took the whole day). Here are a few photos.

After Dunedin for Sunday we made our way to Timaru while visiting Moraki Boulders on the way to Geraldine.

Day 1 Tramping up some mountain... will type the name in when my forgettory remembers. Day 2 Met up with another family and tramped up Mt Oxford... or should I say got 3/4 of the way up and got jelly legs..... hmmm not good.
Then through to Christchurch after stopping off for a very nice Hot Chocolate from a secret little town.. (memory not doing too well at 10.30pm)

We visited Lyttleton.

After a few nights with my 2nd cousin and catch up's all round, we headed for home.

Loud Shirt Day

Work participated in a LOUD shirt day where you donate a gold coin and the funds went to hearing aids for children. Here are my work colleagues with their loud shirts. Sorry faces are blurred.

Invercargill Blossom

Just walking down the street in September, and saw this beautiful blossom outside the City Town Hall.

Fish and Chips in Riverton

A beautiful September evening, we took some South African friends (Kiwi's now) to Riverton for Fish and Chips..... on the bikes of course.
