    Lovely day in Waikanae

    October 16, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

    This is going to be brief as it is 11pm and just realised I haven’t written today as I was going to sleep…! We have had a great day with Rae and Jim…Jim was up early watching the rugby World Cup, joined by Amr and Rae…I joined at leisure, sleeping in a bit longer! After being disappointed that France was beaten, we had breakfast and headed off for a walk through the streets and along the beach…just lovely, ending up at a cafe and discovering that it was already lunchtime had a bit to eat as well as coffee.

    Relaxed for a bit - we walked almost 10kms - joined by chance by Scott’s father in law who dropped in and had an animated chat and rant about the world, then went to a movie at their local cinema which shows good movies and we’d heard often about it…great movie The Tasting (La Dégustation) about wine but very people-y in a French way, right up our alley!

    Back for delicious dinner and chat ..many years of catching up..lots of fun and relaxed! Off to sleep.
