Crutches

Ben has had the joy of learning how to use crutches this week.

Luckily for him, he is at Grandma's house at present, so not many steps to climb. We on the other hand have a flight of 18 to get upstairs, so guess we will be carrying him to bed each night.

Apparently he has been doing well on his crutches and his learning to keep his balance better.
After 4 weeks of this he will probably be very fast on them.

Walking

Last weekend we went to the caravan.

On the Saturday we had gorgeous weather and so we went for a walk.

Steve knew of this secluded beach that he wanted to find.

He said he knew where the path was, so off we set to find this beach, which can only be accessed by this path.

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day to go for this walk. The sun was shining, the water was blue as blue and it was awesome being out in the fresh air.

I took some pictures of the Harbour around by where the caravan is situated from the top of the hill we were climbing to find this beach..

It is beautiful and reminds me all the time why I love New Zealand in the winter and why we have our caravan situated where it is!

Once at the beach, when we had found it, the boys thought the water was the best place to be, Alex just can't resist getting wet!
