Classic Flyers Mini Airshow

 Another great day at Tauranga airport last Saturday. We got to see some of my favourite WW2 fighter aircraft still flying 80 years later thanks to the amazing dedication of the people that restore them and keep them airworthy.

North American P-51 Mustang

Supermarine Spitfire MK IX (UK)


Russian Yak 52s'

Wow!


American Corsair

2014 to 2025

 In 2014 we had a new pool built by Acacia Pools here in Tauranga. 10 years on it was time to re-tile.

The basic pool structure was still in in amazing condition. The re-tile job was done by PC Tiling. What a mission! Such a laborious job in very hot weather and also rain! The team from PC were amazing. They worked from 7 am to 5.30 pm each day with minimal down time. We are so please with the result.

Kids on Holiday

 One day at a time. In addition to food.

Bit of body surfing and the beach, and all the sand that goes with it.

Some book time and the library. Lewis
