Tunanui Stream - our little river...

When we get just too hot and bothered from all our gardening and jobs around our property, this is what we do!

Just at the Northern end of our property is this river-frontage, which is incredible to us.

The name - 'Tunanui' - means "Big Eel" - not that we've seen any...YET!

Our neighbour, also an Aaron, reckons he's caught some Brown Trout here...we'll see. We've seen evidence of the fish babies so far.

And just in case you think Aaron and Phoebe are walking on water, well, no - there are lovely shelves of rock, which are very convenient for lying on, exploring as Phoebe is in this shot, or just for getting in slowly...

...lately, with such a warm November as we've had, the river is really quite tepid - perfect for cooling off!
