We went to the duck pond in Papamoa and I wore my glasses. I thought  I looked really cool. I even reached out to pat the ducks  

 I love the time I spend over in the park. The wind blowing in my face and watching all the goings on just relaxes me so much

The Police were out in force recently over at the Park in Commerce Lane, meeting and greeting everyone, as well as handing out sweets to children. They came over to me to say hello and it made feel so important.
