The girls started back to school Wednesday, February 4th. Esther is in Year 2, Hannah is coincidentally next-door to her in Year 3, and Emma is in Year 5. I think they are happy to be back in school, but I'm not sure I could get them to admit it. The week was a short one, though, because Friday was Waitangi Day. It celebrates the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi and the beginning of New Zealand as a nation. We spent that Saturday going to a surf beach about an hour away, called Muriwai. We took the kids on a little hike to some cliffs overlooking the beach. After that, we went down the road to see a gannet colony. Then we went for a swim and some boogie boarding at Muriwai.

I guess I missed the part where they were out of school. I was wondering how you were all going on so many excursions! They have to wear uniforms, huh?
