HUKA FALLS

 

Alright, no dicking around, straight into Huka Falls photos/videos:

ABOVE:  If you have not visited Huka Falls, I STRONGLY recommend you do if possible.  It's beautiful.  Magical.  Well worth a visit.

And FREE.

Unless you want to get on the Jet Boat.  That's quite expensive at $139 per adult.   I think it's cheaper if you go in a large group.  It is a 30 minute jet boat ride.  One day we will do it.

Right, that's a wrap on our day trip from yesterday.

Today we have a few bits 'n' bobs to get at The Base.  And I also want to look for something BLOODY WARM to wear to markets over the winter months.

Stew thinks a Ski Suit might be what I need... I think I'd look like a dick in a ski suit!  But maybe just the pants would work for me?

I'm gunna have a look in Kathmandu.

First up this morning though, I'm going to put a big Steak and Kidney stew on in the crock pot.

We can enjoy that for a few nights this coming week.

ONWARD...

10.21 am:  Well after traipsing around several sports shops, looking for snow pants, or something similar to wear at markets... I decided to go completely off track.

And I bought this instead:

ABOVE:  Super comfy, warm, thickly padded and not horrendously expensive like others in the shops like Kathmandu.  We found this at Rebel, and while it was fairly expensive, I think it will be worth it, as I can wear it all winter long.

Add my Ugg boots and thick socks and I should be warm enough at markets now.

Next weekend is our next market, so I shall be taking it with me for sure.

While at the shops, I bought stuff for the pool to keep the water from going mega green over winter.  So, I better go and add that right now.

I went into the sewing room around 11 am, but after making just two Bowl Cosys, I realised I wasn't in the mood.

So came inside and did ... NOTHING!

I'm simply not in the mood for much today.

Stew did the lawns, and I got all the washing done.  So there really isn't anything else on our agenda.

Just making sure everything is tickkety boo before Stew's operation on Tuesday.

The Steak 'n' Kidney stew is smelling amazing, my mouth is watering.

We will have some with mashed potatoes and veges come dinnertime.

I hope it's a good as it smells.   It's years since I made a steak 'n' kidney stew!

ABOVE:  And it's done.   There is enough to feed us for a week in there.  Yummy.   Cooking the veges now, then it will be DINNERTIME.

8.13 pm: Well the stew was lovely, EXCEPT for the kidneys.  I didn't like the kidney chunks AT ALL.  Stew didn't mind, cos that weird man likes kidney.  Ikkk.   I will still eat the stew, but the kidney pieces will be fed to the dogs!  I'm sure they will love it.

And that's it for today.   I'm off to bed fairly early this evening.  Daylight Saving went back today, and I'm also feeling rather tired.  Possibly down to the new drug I'm on.  Who knows?   

Catch ya tomorrow.
