Oakura Holiday

We had a typical kiwi holiday at the beach with Paul & Kathy and Aaron & Carolina. This included five toddlers. There was mayhem.

We rented a house at Oakura, at the mouth of Whangaruru harbour. The bay is beautiful and the beach is perfect for kids - dead flat, with no surf to speak of. So for ten days we went swimming, fishing, diving, exploring rock pools, BBQing, etc.

We borrowed John's boat (thanks John!) for the fishing and diving, and took Georgia and Ben out for a whizz in the bay.

Sue and Bruce came up for a couple of days, and Aaron's brother David joined us too.

The kids had a ball, especially the three (Ben, Sofia and Georgia) that we put in the same bedroom. As you could imagine, they partied until they were exhausted.
