Kia Ora Guys The rain just kept coming on Monday and the rain bounced off the tin roof like rocks. For the first time since we arrived I had to utilise the tumble dryer to get things dry. I took the bike out in the rain to get Mel her new puzzle book which was hot off the press today and I knew it would surprise her.
