Day 92

today i went up to my uncle's place in waikanae to catch up with him. i hadn't been to this place before. the last time i visited him, he was living in masterton.
today was more unbearable than yesterday, so we spent most of the day inside catching up. john is an artist so it was great to discuss some work with him. his good friend jeavons was also there & he is currently studying ceramics, so i was surrounded by extremely knowledgeable artists :)
john has a dog cosmo - cutest dog...who can sing. it was so hysterical, but so awesome. john sings to him and cosmo starts singing (howling) along with him! it's fantastic.
even though it was nearly zero degrees, having a dog means you can sit around all day, so we all wrapped up, coated up and took off with umbrella's to take cosmo for a walk. it was a lovely walk along the river...until it started sleeting......really, really brrrr
