Castor Bay

Another day, another beach. Wow, it's a hard life. Was chauffeured further along the Auckland coast to Castor Bay which was almost deserted and very pretty for a stroll, photo ops and generally being a tourist. Liz and I bought books and spent a couple of hours sunbathing and reading succumbing to the heat before collecting Anna and a friend from school.

I played them at Cluedo and did not let the fact that my opponents were 8 year old girls get in the way of claiming a sound victory. A win is a win.

While walking around Browns Bay later, we bumped into a friend of Liz’s and she asked when I went back home. I was a bit stumped as I didn’t even know what day it was. That is a sure sign of being 100% in holiday mode. Sadly I was informed I have just a week left; I shall try to push that to the back of my mind.

The sun has just set so evening TV shall now begin and a bottle of wine or two opened.
