Is this green enough for you Rosey ?

This was taken in the Spring before the trees were in full leaf. Since we acquired the new computer, I haven't been able to download any recent photos...I'll keep trying !

We've had some lovely summer days lately, DD and family are camping so I hope they are getting the same weather pattern..... Yesterday we went to an outdoor, free, musical event in the beautiful Botanic gardens in Christchurch. These are held every Sunday afternoon throughout the summer and are very popular. The music was good and "people watching" was fun too ! All ages there, toodlers dancing to the music, young ones flirting, the elderly sitting in the shade under the lovely trees.. some with picnics others with drinks, all very relaxed and enjoyable. The council seem to have read the peoples mood perfectly. Cantabrians want to be out and about but are scared of large buildings and crowds. Sitting there in the park was the perfect answer to that....

Another nice day today by the looks of things. We are still enjoying a relaxed,"holiday mood" month and have more friends coming around for a meal tonight. We are ignoring (as best we can) the nasty shakes which are continuing .www.christchurchquakemap.co.nz will give you some idea of what's going on down here.!

Have a good day.
Marion.
