Day six of the nature challenge and we're in...

Day six of the nature challenge and we're in Australia!Pass me some Vegemite, I'll crack a Toohey's and we can swoon over the All Blacks performing a haka.... I may have lived in Australia, but I'm a kiwi girl at heart and yes us Kiwi's did invent the pavlova. Check out the last pic).


Who knew cliffs could be dangerous
The second is a little guy who came and hung with me while I worked outside. He was rewarded with the gift of a plum. The third is Sydney's Bondi Beach. Sadly, the lifeguards had caught onto my act of pretending to drown so they could perform mouth to mouth. Cairns where a fool of a man does a fool man thing. Clueless Wonder One thought it would be the coolest job ever. Cue lots of scowling at the fool of a man. Sunset at Clovelly Beach in SydneyBondi to Coogee walk. Who knew a cliff could be dangerous?



My kick ass pavlova

Day five of the nature challenge and we've hit...

Day five of the nature challenge and we are in the South Island of New Zealand. If you don't know where New Zealand is, head to Australia and hang a left. If you hit Antarctica, say hi to a penguin then back up a smidge.

The first picture is a lake. I know. Go figure. I should know the name of it, I absolutely should. I went there, but I have no idea.



The rest are of Kaikoura. Gorgeous part of the world where family hang. That's me hugging a pony or a mammoth.

Day four of the nature challenge and we're in...

Day four of the nature challenge and we've poodled off to Cairo.


  Such an amazing city. I thought we'd have to drive miles to catch the pyramids, nope, right there on the outskirts of the city.
 I can't believe we walked, scrambled hunched over through that tunnel until we reached the sarcophagus room. It was a long way in. Couldn't do it now!







Is there any monument or city that you want to see?

Today we're in gorgeous Tonga!

Day three of the nature challenge and we're in Tonga! 
View from the lookout



Yes the fool on the bike is me

It is like stepping back in time to paradise. The island we were on had no electricity, no WiFi, no TV or radio. Perfect....If I never have to play Monopoly again it won't be too soon, just quietly.

Day two of the nature challenge brings us too...

Day Two of the nature challenge brings us to the Grand Canyon. I don't know what I was thinking, but it was bigger, bolder and breathtaking.





Yesss, those are my two trying to get as close to the edge as they could whilst I whisper begged them to step away from the edge. Still for sale - two boys.

The nature challenge. Pictures of me.

I was tagged to do the nature shot challenge which I think is cool. I'm not comfortable about tagging people to carry it forward, because some people don't like being tagged. Please feel free to carry on or not, but I wanted to share some of me. Niagara Falls. Beautiful. The boys thought it was hilarious to get as close to the edge as possible. For sale. Two boys

My new obsession!

Happy Friday everyone! Look what I made!
My new obsession. It is sooooo much fun. I feel cool and arty and I'm really not. What's really fun is I don't know who I'm creating. Just start at dot one and go.
What do you think?
