Another hot and sunny day (not complaining though), so a gentle stroll down to the waterfront in search of the marina. A large marina but very quiet and no wow boats (sorry Neil) so partook of our morning coffee but sorry to say not very good.
Few hours on the beach and as the tide was in we even went in the sea which was much warmer than at Abel Tasman
. Then a quick turnaround to meet Tim and friends at the Moutere Inn, allegedly the oldest pub in NZ, another one! We then joined Tim's team 'The Brewers' for the monthly quiz. Not much help on the Kiwi questions and in fact not much use on the others either but a large amount of beer was consumed by the chaps and this may have helped us come 4th out of ten teams. In true Kiwi fashion the two wives at the table were driving home, well Graham did drive there. There will probably be some snoring tonight!
