Summer weather in December 2014 was useless. Managed to get to the lake only a few times before the New Year. Now the heat is on, and Summer is what is should be. Swimming at the lake, eating cherries, fun in the sun.

I think the most popular past time at the Lake, is enjoy the "eating of junk food".
Bridget brought along some cherries, which were devoured by everyone. Perfect in the sun!

| Don't panic Mama, it's only Cherry juice! |
The lake water was deliciously cool, and the afternoon was spent getting wet, then lying in the sun warming up again, and then repeat.

There comes a time when the urchins are shivery cold, and unfortunately need to get out of the water and warm up.
 |
| "But I am not cold Mama!" |
The pohutukawas were in bloom, and the tuis were enjoying the trees.
 |
| "I'll just lie here until I warm up" |
