Well the summer holidays are coming to an end, and in just a weeks time the kids all go back to school. There are big changes ahead this year since Zak is away to boarding school.
We’ve had Thor’s brother Jason and his son Mathew over from Australia for a visit, as well as a friend of Mathew’s (also called Mathew) so we have been very busy. The boys loved having their older cousin here, and they all had a great time.
Now they have gone back to Australia, and we set off to Wanaka today to have our scuba diving lesson
This was a family Christmas present, and the first time trying out scuba for all of us.
It was just an intro to scuba lesson, so we got to play in the Wanaka swimming pool
Breathing underwater was very strange, and it took a while getting used to all the equipment.
The kids took to the whole experience like ducks to water. A pity really that the pool wasn’t a bit deeper
After a while the instructor brought out a scooter to play with…so cool.
They even had a mini tank and suit for Sian.
We all agreed it was a great experience and we’d like to go on and get our dive tickets…maybe not just yet though.
