Chilly start but a fine sunny day! R was going to Omokoroa for a haircut so I went that far then walked to the wharf at the end of the peninsula. The sun shone. A large truck and trailer passed me and I wondered where it was going. When I got to the wharf it was waiting for the ferry across to Matakana Island.
An orchard sprayer on the back of a truck came off. That gave me a clue. They are probably picking early kiwifruit out on the island.
The truck is probably delivering empty picking bins and bring back fall kiwifruit bins.
Another large truck and trailer pulled in beside this one, then up with the ramp and off. Less than 5 minute turnaround!
Meanwhile other hopefuls fished off the jetty and some preschool kids splashed in the water.
Loads of folk, many elderly like me walked and chatted in the SUNSHINE.
