Gisborne here we come a day early


We left on the Friday for Gisborne and stayed an extra night at the motel. Thankfully the owner gave us a reduced rate so that was a relief. While in Gisborne we did more shopping, delivered more goods to the missionaries before going to see the sun set on the beach. No wait a minute where is the sun setting? Well not on the beach. Earlier in the year I’m sure I took pretty pictures of the sun setting just over the mountains and on the beach. I’m confused West has now moved!!!! Anyway after not seeing the sun set we bought some chips from the nearby chippy and took them back to the motel to eat and watch telly. That’s our biggest treat when we stay in the motel, to watch the telly even if it is just the news. But we normally watch a movie.
The next morning we went up to Tokomaru Bay and had a picnic on the beach its 6th June so that’s like 6th December in England. It was cold but not as cold as England and Sophia went paddling on the beach in just her costume. Crazy but fun to watch. On our way back to the motel we had planned on seeing the sheep in the field next to where the Bellistons were living but we arrived there in the dark so missed the sheep. Sophia had a fun time drawing with Sister Belliston and Sister Zollinger.
