3 in a Row.

We have had 3 days off in a row( from orchard work.) I could really get to like that. Yesterday we went to visit friends from Taranaki who were up staying at Waihi Beach. We went and had lovely lunch together then took a walk along the beach. There were very few people using such a wide expanse of beautiful beach. ( many having gone back to city jobs ) We paddled - the water was warm. We should have gone for a swim. Still the beachcombing walk was lovely. Sea biscuits and pointy turban shells being the main washed up items. Just wide flat beach on a hot sunny day. Sand between my toes felt good.Here are R and R and M walking into the distance.

                                          Looking out to sea; there is Mayor Island.

 Now today it's back to orchard work, doing extra time to try and catch up. I feel refreshed and ready to cope.
