Today, as part of Leigh's birthday present, we drove out to Whangaumu Bay, taking the new northern by-pass. This was a great saving in time as it avoids going through Kensington and the town.

Then we drove to Tutukaka and looked at the boats, while we had our picnic, drank tea/coffee and did the crosswords - very nice.
