GOLD GIRAFFEj

Today after a lovely blip meet (thanks Ginger Nan and Mario)  decided to be a tourist - took photos of giraffes in the gardens and round about - the botanical gardens in Christchurch are beautiful, spent more time there than I should,  rode the tramcars. (Got on and off and rode all three including the one from Invercargill which I am sure I would have been on as a girl).  The last call before home was to Photograph the golden  giraffe outside the Casino and while I was doing this a guy came out and handed me a parcel wrapped with a blue and gold ribbon (the little girl in the photo got one too) and it was 61 postcards of the various giraffes round the city.   I was chuffed and when I rang my daughter tonight to let her know I was home safely she was wild - "said I went to the Casino, spent money and I never got any"  Mum will share with her as don't know whn I will write 62 postcards.  A lovely day and Arky was really happy with K and B but glad to see me when I got home.y.  A lovely day and now almost time for bed".
