Here are a few photos of our new lifestyle, here in the country in New Zealand. This is a complete contrast for Gerrie, remember he is born and bred in the big Dutch city Amsterdam. Photo below, Gerrie with Coro and Fi (our dogs).

Gerrie learning how to use a shotgun to shoot clay "pigeons" (disks made from clay, that get shot into the air - when you shoot them, they disintegrate giving a cloud of dust).

Then it was my turn.

A barbecue on our back veranda. The big stainless steel BBQ was Gerrie's Christmas present to me.

Two contrasting Christmas Day parties - first in the seclusion of the bush, then in Whitianga town.

At a music festival

Gerrie getting a hair-job (Our barber has this laid back place way out in the bush, we drink wine and expresso coffee, and have a great party - an afternoon of relaxation once a month, to escape the constant "on" life of the tavern)

Cooking a pig on the spit, for Gerrie's birthday

Carving the pig, and Gerrie with his present from me - a hand carved wooden cobra

Relaxing in Queenstown
