Looking towards the Tasman Sea

I have taken a day of annual leave today. S had booked a motel in Raglan for a workshop weekend with one of her poetry support groups, and for various reasons the others decided to cancel. I suggested that we book a second room for daughter C and her boys, and still have our weekend away. 

Despite the rain all the way from Auckland it was an unremarkable trip. By the time C and boys arrived the rain was less frequent and much lighter, so we went for a walk to the river edge and then around to the harbour side. 

Mr H went onto the Bow Street jetty, and then down the boarding steps on the upriver side. Which is where he was when I took this photo.
