THIS 'n THAT ...

We visited Whitcoulls, which is like Exclusive Books, and I saw these Derek Landy books so I sent Connor a message with this photo asking if he wanted any of them ... He responded immediately saying that he still needed American Monsters for his collection.

When I walked into Pack 'n Save I saw this gorgeous bunch of Steph's favourite flowers so I sent her a message "Thinking about you all the way from New Zealand" with this photo ...

On the Friday night before the wedding we sat and unravelled these huge flowers for the hall ... my hunny is just as cute ast them ...










Auckland felt very much like Durban and we saw many familiar things.
Some of them were:

Surprising
How many Asian people live in Auckland.
How much Greenhithe and the surrounding areas reminded me of Durban ... I even saw a house which looked exactly like my Aunty Ria's house.
