Easter Holidays (2 week break)

We went away to Cable bay for a couple of days in the first week. Zico loved playing at the campground. At breakfast time we saw a stick insect and a very friendly Weka. Daddy suggested that we feed the stick insect to the Weka, it gobbled it up much to Zico's delight. There was also a friendly campground cat with white socks called Timothy.

We went out on the paddleboard together and Daddy went fishing on his Kayak but before he went off into the depths we all explored some caves together. It started to get cold so Zico helped me to light a fire on the beach. He found drift wood and kept throwing some more on the fire. He toasted some mini marshmallows too. When Daddy got back it was dark and late and our fire was blazing so we cooked Daddies two mackerels that he caught on the fire and ate some proper crisps to go with it. Zico loved this new version of "fish and chips". 

 Zico has had a break from writing for these two weeks but he has read plenty of books, done some dot to dots, visited the library and various playgrounds. Had a friend visit from Wellington and of course had heaps of time building with Lego and Duplo which is his favourite thing to do.
