Lord Viking decided to frolick in the paddock. I joined him to document the special occasion.

Near And Far
Lord Viking was busy doing his own thing on the far side of the paddock. Meanwhile Princess Wandacakes was being her best relaxo-self in our bedroom.
It’s interesting (to us at least) how different their personalities are. Viking spends most of his time outdoors, patrolling the borders to keep up safe. Meanwhile Wanda spends most of her time inside, sitting with us.
As the seasons change we find them both spending more time outdoors though. Soon they will disappear from our laps in the evening, preferring to spend the warm nights sniffing, lurking and pouncing.
I do enjoy Summers, but I miss their company more.
Snuggles
It’s unusual to see the children laying so close to each other. Maybe old age has mellowed them.
Princess Wandacakes And A Little Bit Of Lord Viking
If this is the shape of things to come for our New Zealand Summer, perhaps 2020 hasn’t been a complete write-off after all.
Wet
Lord Viking and Princess Wandacakes are sheltering from the inclement weather.
A Sunny Winter’s Morning
A lovely morning in Auckland. Princess Wandacakes cleans her paw while Lord Viking eyes her with suspicion.
Two Views
One from home. One from managed isolation. I hope to be out of the latter and back in the former tomorrow.
From Isolation
I have returned to New Zealand after a month in the UK. We have this managed isolation thing, whereby all returnees have to sit in a hotel for 2 weeks in quarantine.
The Pullman in Auckland is one of the nicer hotels. A gilded cage is still a cage, however.
The Children
Lord Viking
Sitting in one of his favourite spots. The sun is getting weaker as we move towards Winter but there’s still some heat for him.
