Long Weekend

This weekend is to be a long weekend, Monday is something like Wellington celebration day which implies everyone is off :)
Rob, Chris, James (Chris his longtime Whangarei friend who is staying with us for a couple of days( and myself decided to go up to the botanical gardens and enjoy the summer sessions. Every year they organize 1 to 2 hr concerts in the botanical gardens for 3 weeks in a row, for free!
I had never been there so we checked it out completely not prepared.... there were loads and everyone was picnicking.... it was real nice. Very cozy feel to it and the gardens are lit with all sort of beautiful colors to enhance the colors of the garden, that combined with some nice jazz was very pleasing indeed! Next time we have to make sure we come earlier and bring some gear :)
After that we decided it was a good idea to go to the Matterhorn to have some Caiparihna's.... when I walked in the bartender recognized me and he was new what we wanted :) The good thing was that we had explained to him the way we wanted our Caiparihna's made and he remembered.... they were divine and as a result we had quite a few :)

Had to wake up in time this morning cause I had another tattoo appointment.... had some issues getting up and I ended up being late but Manu is very relaxed so it was all good.
We did a couple of hours on my right leg and it really starting to come together now, will see if I can make a decent picture of it tomorrow. Still a long way to go tho.....

The boys just did some shopping and watching some doggy Sly Stallone movie, after that we will have ourselves a barbie and some more Caiparihna's ..... no one makes them as nice as when you do it yourself :)
