It was lovely and cool when we woke this morning but it didn't last long as once the sun came round the house warmed up a lot.
We got some nice anniversary cards and Heather bought us a lovely Kea ornament for the garden and Kirsty bought us a bottle of wine via Heather.
Heather left to pick up Michelle and then they walked up the Mount on the difficult track.
Jon and I left to go for his appointment with the Consultant Oncologist at 9.00. We went in on time and had a chat with her and she has told Jon to reduce his dose to four tablets at night to see if it help keep Bertie under control a little better - fingers crossed.
We then went round to the main hospital to see Mark, the surgeon. We were there early but had to wait half an hour over our time so a good 50 minutes waiting. All is good with him, too and we see him again in three months and he will organise a scan of Jon's liver at the end of the year.
We got home and Heather had only just got back so needed to shower and then we were off out to go to the Amazing Maze over near Whakatane. We stopped at Kiwi 360 on the way for a coffee and a look round the shop.
It took us ages to find the farm as the signs were not that good. By the time we got there it was 1.00 and very hot so walking round a maze was not the ideal thing to do. We managed to get round in about 45 minutes and didn't need to open the sealed map or use the walkie talkie to get us out.
We then drove into Whakatane to have a light lunch as we were going to have fish and chips tonight. Our light tapas was huge and we were all so full. We also stopped at a SA shop on the way home that sells lovely real fruit ice cream which they make while you wait and it is very good. After that we were so full we didn't feel like having fish and chips for dinner which would need to be early as we were booked to go and see Les Miserables at 8.00.
I packed Heather's case for her so that we can fit everything in they just need to be weighed tomorrow and then we might have to start taking things out!!
Well I am sure there is a first for everything and after 33 years married we went to McDonald's for dinner before the cinema. Jon really knows how to treat me well! The reason being we couldn't find anywhere else open that did light meals!!!
The film was really good and I did need a lot of tissues!
We got home and the house was so hot, poor Totty I am not sure how she stands it!!
Hopefully we can sleep tonight but we have got the fan going all night.
