At home

I started the day with a visit to the dental hygienist which, thankfully, went well. Later in the morning hubby made soup for lunch tomorrow and I baked ginger biscuits, which are rather nice to have with afternoon coffee. 

This afternoon we went for a slow walk down to St Heliers to post a couple of birthday cards and then continued around to Kohimarama, where we headed slightly inland to make our way home.

As we walked along the boardwalk by Kohimarama Beach I was surprised to see a tiny toy horse hitched up to a pole with a woman on one side and a dog on the other, both of whom were gazing out to sea, so quickly took a surreptitious photo of the three of them for today’s blip.
