Today we did the traditional kiwi beach Christmas with Charlotte & Dougal and went to Wenderholm Regional Park just north from home. It was a lovely warm, sunny day so the park was quite busy, but plenty of room for everyone. Lunch was a picnic of crayfish salad and smoked salmon sandwiches.
We all got very nice presents - Charlie included with his new tunnel and ball.
And Royston got me this lovely canvas print converted from a photo of Charlie.
The evening meal was cooked mostly on the BBQ - first course of battered oysters excluded. The second course was BBQ'd prawns and pan fried hapuka fillet.
Followed by small cuts of kangaroo and venison fillet with potatoes.
Desert was traditional individual Kiwi pavlova and fruit, finishing off a great day of sun, beach, food and matching wine.
