An unusual rabbit at Okahau

​Hello friends and family
Dan and I continued with our tree planting on Sunday and Monday. We have now planted enough trees to counter our planned holiday to the USA, with 2 trees for every hour in the air. The work certainly warmed us up in the cold! On Tuesday morning, the fog rolled in. We did the rounds down the hill and then, after lunch, Dan and I went down to Dunedin to do some consumer research on PPE suitable for penguin work. Not a big consumer demand! 

being watched at St Clair's for dinner

​After an early dinner at St Clair’s, Dan got a shuttle to the airport, and I drove home in the fog. Dan was lucky to get home as the fog covered the whole country. When it is foggy, the light from the lighthouse gets reflected onto the house so it can be annoying.

The first basket fungus of the season

The cold weather continued for the rest of the week. On Friday I started on the annual deep clean of the hospital. I got it finished yesterday and plan to plant more trees today.
Have a great week!
