Put on your warmest jacket and hat and gloves and come for a walk with me. The sun is shining but the wind is cutting , so walk briskly.
We are walking along the Omokoroa Peninsula, through streets of houses then across the reserve, along the cliff top where through the shadows and the trees you can see small boats of every type and in the distance Mt. Maunganui. ( usually my photos show the Mt. from the other side ) As we emerge from the trees at the bottom of the hill small coloured row boats are propped unused against a pole waiting for Summer. The tide is way out.The wharf is exposed but the barge that crosses to Matakana Island, is filling with an assortment of vehicles and people.
There that took 50 minutes; I hope you warmed up and feel invigorated after your walk.
( Omokoroa Peninsula is about 7 kms away from where I live , going West away from Tauranga direction . )

It might be winter down there but the photos show a beautiful clear day - thanks for sharing
A winter walk by the sea, wonderful. I can almost hear the waves lapping. Thank you.
Thanks for the walk. it is so different from what we see when we walk.
Just thought I would say I enjoyed my visit to your blog! The Lemon honey looks too yummy...will have to try it out. I love the quilt blocks you have laid out on your June 18th post! What a wonderful effect they make!!!
Happy stitchings!
This walk was so refreshing. Clear blue sky and beautiful view.
Lovely clear photos Ali. The boats look a bit forlorn waiting there.
thanks, that was fun, but brrr, now its time to wrap our hands around a steaming hot mug of coffee!
Now that's what I call a great walk! My knees don't even hurt! What a beautiful place! Thanks Ali. Thanks to for inspiring me today!
I'm glad you all enjoyed the walk. Ive a few others in mind for another day.
