morning ladies 
Up bright and early before the whanau as I have some washing and a few other bits and pieces I want done before we leave for Auckland again this morning.
We had a wonderful day at the zoo in spite of the rain. We were so lucky weather wise. Every time there was a heavy shower we were either looking at the tiger (omg, such beauty!), the orangutan (didn't realise just how big they were!) or the cotton top monkeys (so damed cute lol) there was plenty of shelter and seats for us to just sit and enjoy the moments until the rain eased. Thank goodness for those 'cheese cutter' barriers on the motorway. Coming home heading south, a car heading north veered off the road and hit the barrier. Our son-in-law and grand daughter were in the car (we took two vehicles) right where the car bounced off the wires. If it hadn't been there we wouldn't have our son-in-law or granddaughter today. So they definitely save lives yesterday.
Today is The Great Whanau Day Out Number 2
and we're off to see the T Rex skeleton at the museum. Can't wait to see our grandson and son's faces when they see it 
Our son may be in his 30s but he still loves dinosaurs lol.
OHH, what a real treasure your friend is. The world needs more people like her.
We are all enjoying the photos of space that is on the news, just mind boggling and a little hard to get one's head around the distances. But just beautiful too. As long as we don't go stuffing it up. It's bad enough with all the space junk circling our own planet and the damage we have done to our environments without adding more to it.
Happy crafting
