Hanging out at English Bay on a stop over on our trip to N.Z..it was 25 C which was quite a shock to the system..and all the amazing plants in bloom and flowering trees..awesome .

Then, because we think we’re still energizer bunnies, we rented a car and drove to Washington ..

..to meet friends who live there, who met us and shared a meal en plain air, with this great view. Friends rock.
