It's the weekend again!
Hello dear friends,
After a busy week, it is great to have the weekend here again and a long weekend for us.
A trip to the dentist, {another appointment scheduled on Tuesday for a crown,} sigh! don't you just hate having to see the dentist, sewing an outfit for a friends 50th birthday we have been invited to and hope to be able to show you the finished outfit soon.
Here in New Zealand, it is Waitangi Day named after the town of Waitangi, which is located in the Bay of Islands and where the Treaty was first signed.
The restored Treaty House, once belonging to James Busby
Held each year on the 6th of February to celebrate the signing of the Treaty between the Maori and the British Crown, NZ's founding document on that date back in 1840.
Te Whare Runanga {the house of assembly} the interior of the carved meeting house
Due to the weather looks like it is going to be an indoor one here.
We badly need rain as the garden is dry and water tank is running low, so we welcome a shower of rain.
Hope you manage to relax and take a little time for yourself this weekend
hugs
Carolyn
