PICKING KIWIS

My parents-in-law’s kiwi plot is not near their house, but on the other side of the village where most of the kiwi plots are. With help from others (hello to Jenny and Olivia who came and helped ^^) the kiwis are harvested over 2 days. Kiwis here are a once a year crop so now is the time to buy the freshest kiwis! Everyone wears an apron with a pocket to put the kiwis into and then when it’s full, the bottom of the apron unzips so kiwis fall easily into the crates. Kiwis are later sorted into sizes and shipped out.

Beautiful Countryside

Beautiful Countryside

This happens a lot. I decide to go for a walk and get bombarded with fertilizer smell! Remember that when you see some of the photos I post on Instagram. It’s not something that just happens in the countryside either. I remember several times in Sydney when they fertilize all the lawns in parks and there is that fertilizer smell in the city!

SOONDAE TRUCK

Twice a week the Soondae Ahjussi visits nearby with his soondae truck. Now I’ve mentioned before that I don’t like soondae, but I’ve had a change of heart and now I quite like it! I don’t like eating it at open markets where it can have a strong smell and looks like it’s been sitting there for a while…haha, I can still be picky. I only started liking it after trying it at this soondae truck because it’s so fresh and there are different flavours. Hugh has always loved it though and it’s one of his favourite foods.

Soondae can also be romanised as “sundae” but I think that spelling can cause some problems for foreigners who are expecting ice cream…

Don’t Step On

Don't step on

I like frogs but I have this paranoia about accidentally kill them. The feeling of stepping on a frog and crushing it is a big fear of mine. Unfortunately there are lots of frogs at the moment because the rice has been planted so many of the fields have water on them. Great habitat for frogs, but makes for terrifying walking at night.

RAINY DAY VIDEO

I noticed our neighbours had called in extra help to get the onions harvested. Luckily my inlaws were just harvesting potatoes in a green house so the rain didn’t bother them.

These types of rainy days can be quite nice. The rain is light and there is no wind, so I can walk around with an umbrella and not get drenched. It’s nice and peaceful.
