A tree fit for a Gnome!
This weekend Shane was away on a motorbike endurance ride, so waking up Saturday morning I figured why do we have to stay at home again. Packed up the kids, feed pets and headed to the East.
I have a friend in Owaka and have never got round to visiting her.
Taking the southern scenic route we called in to many scenic spots, walking to see 3 different waterfalls and exploring places we hadn't seen before.
I have taken soooo many photos and am trying so hard not to overload you with them but heres a little look at our adventures.
After a yummy tea at Noels, she took us down to Jacks Point to watch the penguins come in from their days fishing and head up the beach to their nests. Now that was very cool. Plan on going back now when the babies are hatched and they come down the beach to meet parents for a feed.
Waking up on Sunday to some glorious sunshine and the sound of Cody shooting Starlings. Noel's partner had him out target shooting, he was beaming big time.
I had never been to Nugget Point so that was where we all headed after our breakfast. Beautiful coastline, I took so many photos!!
More big penguins on our way to the lighthouse at Nugget Point.
The walk to Nugget Point was spectacular, something one has to see for ones self. The steepness of the landscape and the blue sea way down below you!
The Nuggets
This is the gnome with a very large seal at Cannibal bay,
Noels directed us to many other little beauty untouched spots on our return to her place.
Like this wharf at Pounamea.
It was sad to say bye, but we left with 24hrs of rad memories and so much to tell Dad when we got home again.
Plus new places to take family & friends when they are visiting our land down under.
