On Saturday we...
...went to the beach. It was a fine afternoon to hang out with Craig, Anna & Robbie on Kohi beach. No grey, damp and cloudy skies for us - just sun, sea and sand. Craig's wife Jo is in London and missing all our fun, but I'm sure she'll return with many stories of her own to share the next time we're on the beach. Jo, take a deep puff on the big smoke and come back soon!
Craig looking rather cool.
George looking very glamerous.
Robbie and Theo begin work on their sandcastle.
Robbie takes a little break.
George and Roger with another warm embrace.
The beach babes...
Anna drying in the sun after a splash in the sea.
Theo beats Roger in a beach race.
Craig watches as Robbie climbs a Pohutukawa.
Roger searches for some shade.
This is the car that Robbie (and dad) made.
Robbie knocks Roger down in his sports car.
...but Roger gets his own back.

Tahuna Torea Nature Reserve
We love exploring the local area close to home. In the Eastern Bays we're fortunate to have a number of coastal walks to enjoy and this is one of our favourites, Tahuna Torea Nature Reserve - so dramatic with the tide out.
There are plenty of sunny pools to find crabs & shells and to warm our feet.
Looking back towards Glendowie & our 'burbs.
The end of the sand-spit...?
...not quite. But we're closer to Half-Moon Bay Marina across the estuary. At certain times, when the tide is really low, the ferries can't get in & a bus service operates - not quite sure how though.
Fighting back the crowds, we returned to Glendowie & the reserve. The lagoon is barely visible on the left.
