Today has been a beautiful sunny day. So first stop was Cathedral Cove. A fairly big walk in with lots of ups and downs and heaps of people. It is a beautiful place and aptly named. We stayed down there for quite a while and got a small window to get photos without other people..
Some other views from around the cove...
The goats were on a side track to Gemstone Cove. Very friendly and many young ones. We had to pay $15 to park the motorhome!
Then off to Hot Water Beach - as you can see from the photo below it was a pretty popular place. The tide was just starting to come in.
Then a little bit further down the coast to Tairua. Ken found this walk up Mt Puka which overlooks the water and town. Faye was a little reluctant when she saw the hill! However, we did it. You can drive about 2/3rds then a steep walk with the final section scrambling over rocks. The photo is evidence.
By that time Ken’s watch had told him that we had done 15,601 steps - walked 11.84 kms and climbed the equivalent of 104 floors.
Decided to stay here at a lovely freedom camp overlooking the water. Tomorrow the plan is Mount Maunganui.
