flooding!

We've had torrential rain for the past 24 hours, and at high tide today the estuary overflowed its banks, so the park in front of us was flooded. James and I went for a walk along Buffalo Beach - very windy and wet, but warm. The roads going out of Whitianga at each side were flooded too, so right at high tide we were all trapped!

  1. Hi to all of you down under,

    Terry and I have returned from our African adventures but have not fully recovered yet.
    It was an amazing time and for 18 days we felt totally immersed in Africa and out of touch with the rest of the world. Internet connection is tenuous in Tanzania.
    We endured very long days off road and saw an amazing number of birds and animals. There was everything from stunning vistas to close encounters and even a few 'kills'.
    It was great to catch up on your adventures. I love seeing the photos.
    Bye for now.
    Love,
    Auntie Janie.
