Day 33 Paihia

After I loaded the blog yesterday Caro and I went driving. Ended up at Cooper's Beach and walked along the beach. Just so lovely. Then on to Mangonui for a seafood meal. I had hoki. So much nicer than the supermarket hoki. I am not going to say it was as good as blue cod but close probably because it was fresh.
We both enjoyed our meals.
Slept well and this morning I set off for Paihia. I did stop on the way through and take a photo of the entrance to Keri Keri because I hadn't managed it the other days when I was there. I think it is great. I am amazed how it is constructed.
When I am driving I have my music on and often sing along. This morning no exception with a few Beatles numbers. It is random what comes on.
There is a lot of bamboo growing around this area for protection /shelter belts for the fruit trees. Some of the bamboo is really tall. Interesting to see.
I have also noticed not many motorists used their indicators when leaving passing lanes, overtaking on passing lanes etc. Just my observation.
I am in Paihai. Just a great place. I have been here before but forgot how lovely it was. I have been to Waitangi and out on the boat to see the hole in the rock so won't be doing that again.
My nephew and his partner recently moved here. Josh is a helicopter pilot so my blow a few bucks and have a spin with him tomorrow.Leia mais
