Whananaki

---

George and Beb invited us to have a day at the beach with them today, and they took us on the east coast about half way between here and Paihia. Whananaki is famous for having the longest footbridge in the southern hemisphere - I just googled longest footbridge in the world, but it won't give a straight answer. the longest suspended bridge, paper bridge, bridge between 2 buildings!!!! Anyway, the photos speak for themselves, and my face feels as if its been to the seaside!!

here it is
the longest footbridge in the southern hemisphere

no cars
so we decided to walk!

here we are
not being very sensible!

paddling
we all had a paddle, and Beb found a fish on the sand still alive, so we threw it back in. it didn't grant us a wish, or turn into a handsome prince!

the new fashion in noses
or was it protection from the sun?

picnic
we found the perfect spot, under the pohutakawas and so near the beach.

oh we do like to be beside the sea
walking along watching the breakers was lovely, they were quite rough far out on the rocks, but if I'd had my cossie, i would have been tempted to go in. That sort of day!

watching
the waves coming in.

George and Beb
not so easy to get them in the same picture ( and my first attempt left George headless!!
