The Wednesday driving to Dunedin from Wanaka

 Hi,

Busy days indeed.  We worked from "home" successfully in the common room at the Wanaka Top10.  There were the occasional campers coming in for brekkie or to charge their devices.  But it was pretty quiet.

-3 C in Wanaka - yes - felt like it

Lunch selfie
We got away to a cafe in town for lunch.  And met the painter at the house.  They have been distracted by one of their mothers falling ill in Argentina.  Not easy to get back.  They need an 80 hour set of flights and a visa to go through the US.  Poor guy.


Did you take a pic, Mike?

View from work

I was in a meeting at the end of the day that involved me just listening - so I did that while Mike drove.  I can report that Vodafone has pretty good coverage from Wanaka to Cromwell.  Only dropped out a few times for a few seconds.

Cromwell gorge where the Sampson car gave up

We had the clearest of nights with a supermoon full moon.  Frosty but not on the roads.  At Mike's mother's place by 8pm.

11.11pm lunar eclipse

I woke up at 11pm to see the eclipse in full blood mode. Totality was from 11.11pm to 11.18pm.  Peered up at it in my t short and sleep shorts from the wee deck by Mike's mother's room.  Using her binoculars.  Good fun.  The stars were brilliant.

Back to bed and up for a long day of meetings.  

Have a good one.
Love,
Angela
