Day trip to Kerikeri

Our daughters soccer game was in Kerikeri this morning. We did our usual trip into our local Famers Market, albeit earlier than we normally go. We then drove straight to Kerikeri so that the team had time for a good warm up before the game.


The trip up was quite pleasant, there was quite a bit of fog around. However this did not detract from the beauty of the scenery of the trip. 


After the soccer game we had a little look around the place, as you do, to see what has changed since the last time we visited the area.


I always love visiting the Stone Store and I took some pictures to share with you.

The last time that we visited here, they were replacing shingles on the roof - the old fashioned way.

Here is a photo of Kemp House. The history around these dwellings is impressive and well worth a visit if you ever get the opportunity.

We visited our favourite butcher shop while in Kerikeri and purchased some supplies of yummy meats. We also bought pies for lunch at one of the bakery/cafes and boy did we have a treat. I had lamb and kumara and the lamb just melted in my mouth. Hubby had a chicken pie which smelt delicious. It is always a pleasure to travel around our region as there are always special things to see, do and eat. We live in a great place here in Northland. 


Happy stitching everyone.
Cheers
