the rest of the weekend.

• Celebrating two weeks of holidays with Gunter in style: homemade doughnuts, a family piano concert and some favourite boardgames.

• Walking with our community to witness the beginnings of our main street being demolished. Standing, talking, stitching, remembering and contemplating this new "normal."

• having fun with eggs in the midst of Autumn.

• and launching a new blog tracking the rebuilding of Lyttelton: the projects, the grassroots leadership, skills and systems for building resilient communities and what a "culture of possibility" looks like. Check it out at www.lyttel-town.blogspot.com.

We are in Auckland for a few days staying at Earthsong and then heading to stay with family on the Coromandel Penninsula.

We are enjoying the stable ground.
