Settling in


We are slowly but surely settling in to the swing of things here in Raglan, NZ. We've opened up a bank account, we've found the cheap eats in town, we have all adjusted to the time change, and Luna has started growing dreadlocks to fit in with the local crowd (the maori tattoos will have to wait)

We move into our more permanent house tomorrow - a big relief for Noah's cranium which regularly hits the 6' high ceiling beams in the hobbit cave where we are currently staying.

Most importantly - we have purchased a surfboard (a.k.a. Old Yeller) - she has already proven to be a loyal companion in the surf.


We also got Luna a bike so she can cruise around town (she calls it her 'slash purple slash pink bike').



It has been a 3-day holiday weekend here in NZ, so the beaches in town have been fairly crowded (crowded is a relative term). This beach session was fueled by strawberry ice cream!


Here is a video of Noah jumping off the bridge in the harbor. Can't see Noah? - look for the palest guy on the bridge.

  1. Great pics so far - looks like such a beautiful place! Glad to hear you are settling in! Addie (and the rest of the Roy clan) miss you guys. From Addie to Luna "I love you so much and I will never forget about you, please come back soon!"
