Wtoe set off for a day at Cape Kidnapper, a nice stretch of beach where we were told it is possible to go and see thousands of Gannets at close range. We were looking forward to a walk along the beach and some interesting photographs. The beach was closed as the Gannets were still breeding so that put that idea in the bin. We had a cup of coffee and mulled over the options. We decided to have a walk as far as we could, not really far - just about a mile or so then we turned back. The walk took us through a caravan site which had some interesting street names; Coronation Street and Ramsay Street to name a couple.
The weather was fantastic, clear blue skies, very warm with a sea breeze to help with the temperature. After our walk we had Lunch.
After lunch we set off for Te Mata Peak a national Park with a huge hill. We chose to drive up most of the way then walk to the summit, we might return later for a longer walk when we are more prepared for the day out. The views were stunning from the top as you can see.
I was persuaded to go for a Thai Curry for dinner, it was actually not too bad, very spicy and I couldn't finish it but quite tasty then we went to the cinema to see the Bourne Ultimatum, a great film but Susan fell asleep, she blamed it on the fact that the guy next to her had removed his shoes! The cinema was tiny, only 4 rows of seats and a total of 12 people there. I was fascinated by the toilets, you had a choice of Male, Female or Paraplegic - very PC!
