    That tree fern looks like a caterpillar. I love it! Wish I was standing in that cottage right now....

    Sit by the water with a cocktail in hand, some good friends nearby. A big floppy hat to keep the sun off.
    It is a longggggg flight from here. Wait for me.

    BTW I love the Pink Panther. I painted him all over on my son's dresser when he was a baby.

    Ahhh wouldn't it be fab - I wish we were all meeting at that bach this weekend for a cocktail party. Bit cool still for swimming here but we could sail, I bet being kiwi's they have a hobie cat or a sailing dinghy at least. Fun fun.
