Friday, February 15 - On the beach

Oreti Beach, near Invercargill, where The World's Fastest Indian raced his
motorcycle
Interesting way to exercise your horses ...

... the beach is several kilometers long
Diana grabbing the reins
A new beach, made completely of tiny rocks ...
... populated by strange creatures ...

... and pirates
Moving along, a beach with a light house ...
... ship races ...

... which are thrilling to watch ...
... and sea lions
As usual, the youngsters bicker while Mom watches disapprovingly
On another beach, petrified trees show up at low tide ...

... and we watch a yellow-eyed penguin wattle up the rocks to its nest
(we couldn't get very close, he's right in the middle of the photo)
One must be aware of the dangers of one's environment, and plan accordingly ...
... hmm, how about this spot ...

... looks safe to me.
Sheep on the lam.  We followed her for almost a kilometer.
On a rainy evening, dinner in the van
