Early morning

at Papamoa Beach.  We have just had two lovely days with family at Papamoa and also managed to catch up with old friends and neighbours which was great.  Shortly after taking the main shot at 6am I noticed some shapes way along the beach in front of me.  It turned out to be this walking group, quite possibly heading for coffee at Mt Maunganui in the far distance before returning back along the beach. Everywhere  is noticeably much drier than it was since we were last here just a couple of weeks ago, no doubt the constant winds have played a part there. 2nd extra is a beach community toy cupboard for children (small and not so small) for use on the beach
