Hello everyone!
Thought I'd just tell you all about our lovely weekend in Napier... basically a cool little town in the Hawkes Bay region on the East Coast of North Island. Most famous for wine, sunshine and Art Deco buildings. Awesome! If you're into any of those things and happen to be passing, it's definitely worth a visit!
This was Katie's birthday weekend so we treated ourselves to a B&B and an expensive and delicious lunch in a posh winery restaurant, and then a food and wine tour of the region. Of course I would have been happy with soggy, sandy sandwiches on the beach and sleeping in the car again, but you know, Seb insisted!!
Our tour on Sunday included a trip to a farmers market where you can try all the local yummy foods, a drive up to some beautiful view points and waterfalls, and then lunch followed by wine tasting at some seriously impressive wineries.
We've come home with a good nose, discerning undertones of rich berries with a peppery mid pallet, delicious with a slightly rare fillet steak...... after you've tried 7 or 8 different wines in a row they all start tasting like ribena to me! Good fun though and it felt like a proper grown up 28 year old's birthday!! Although we did also go out in town with some friends and just eat pasta and get drunk as per usual - so not that grown up really!!
Lots of love to you all,
Katie and Seb xxxx

Hi Katie and Seppoooo,
nice to see you on these pictures. Hope you both are doing well and have a great time on your trip.
Now Dani and me, we are back at home from our trip and trying to find a job. That sucks...
Anyway, we are so jealous :-)

Oh Michi is dam right. I habe him on the phone quite often in bad mood... I think he should drink more... much more! Mariuana could help too. By the way Michi, I don´t know if Kathy knows anything about "alias P. Bruno". The truely fact is: Since 1997 Michi holds the world record (see Guiness Book of World Records 1997 page 103) in having the largest collection of porn movies in the entire world.
Most of them selfmade :-)
But now:
happy birthday Kathy :-)
Okay I am a bit late but well...
Seems that you both enjoy your time down there. Very nice - I realy would like to join you - one men more sleeping in the car, snorkling and enjoying sandwiches at the beach...
Stop dreaming Mr. Mauch, back to work. Well work in total sucks - I realised. I realy like my Job and Hamburg is great but every morning (not an early bird) getting up and so on and so on.
So we planned a short trip to greece in May. Looking forward to it!
Go on enjoying your time there.
Andy
P.s. best regards from sandra!

Hi Katie! I'm Ping Ping, do you still remember me?
Those pictures you took are simply gorgeous. I love them. You look beautiful in those pictures. It has been a long time since i saw you. I remember you wrote some words in my notebook and i still have it. Haha~
I'm doing fine here. My sister Huey Yee, she's not at home now, so she cant leave you a message, but she's doin great here too! She's having her discussion at her friend's house at this time.
Okay, that's all for now. I have school tommorow, can't stay up that late.
I hope next time you could come to Malaysia and visit us.
And maybe could stay in our house for a couple days.
Enjoy there! Bye bye! =)
