This past wknd Laura and Ted came over for a visit for her birthday, Mike and Suzanne also came over but they stayed with a friend in Napier. It was awesome catching up with them all and taking them sightseeing plus to a few new places.
First on our list of places was Napier Prison. Turns out I'm a pretty good criminal, first didn't really care got arrested, then stole the gun from the copper and then became one :) silly police ppl letting me in haha. And ok I did get locked up but atlst I didn't look quite as crazed as Ted did, so figure points to me there :)
Over all the prison was a bit weird, the start was real fun and cool but then it got real serious and felt wrong to have paid to visit the place, some of the old cells felt eerie like some very bad stuff had gone on in them, which judging from the facts on the walls it had. We all left feeling a lil gloomy and serious. Would say it's still worth going to see but just beware of the more serious side as we weren't expecting it and it took us by surprise.
We then headed off to mini golf (am sure we ate at some stage but cannot remember where or when haha). Did the green course again, mostly cos the blue one was full of kids. Not that doing the one I'd already played helped me at all, though I did get a hole in one, along with Laura and Suzanne :D sorry boys but the girls totally rocked more haha
After a chill out break back at mine we went to Thai Silk for dinner. Hadn't been there before but it wont be the last time I go, the food was amazing and the server was awesome. Definitely recommend it if you are looking for Thai in Hastings.
Sunday morning, once I woke Laura up (hehe) we went for a walk to get some coffee, ended up getting a coffee from a street cart on our wander and walking while drinking them, did 5-ish km all up before we got back to mine to wake Ted up so we could meet Mike and Suzanne and their friend Anna and her boys for brunch in Napier.
Overall it was an awesome wknd, and the weather was amazing for my guests :) very generous of Mother Nature and she also watered my shrubs again today, she is doing so much better at that than me yet is not overwatering them, she must be a gardener hehe :)
