Pounawea
A delightful little place just after Jack’s Bay.
First show of Autumn colour.
Taieri Mouth
A beautiful seaside town south of Dunedin. A place we would love to have a Summer holiday at another time. The cray boats cross the bar to the open sea & they bring in big catches.
Deserted Coast
Between Taieri Mouth & Brighton the road runs alongside the coast for most of the way. At one point we stopped on the side of the road & clambered down to the beach which was deserted for as far as we could see. The sand was fine & white, the sea & sky blue & the sun was warm.
We felt that we were the only people alive in this beautiful place. Terry had a great compulsion to whip off his clothes & run around on the sand. Complete freedom! Did he do it? It would not have been a great sight & certainly no photos. Oscar took the opportunity to have a roll in the warm sand.

I can see why you would like to re visit here in the summer, looks like a very peaceful place, beautiful scenery
