Kaikoura

South Bay

July 31, 2011 by NZ Filbruns Leave a Comment

Today on our way home from church we stopped on the south side of the Kaikoura Peninsula, called South Bay, to fill a couple of jugs with seawater.  The rocks there are extremely jagged, and the layers are at various angles, some curved.  What a fascinating sight!  There wasn’t much sea life, although I did see a lot of sea anemones open.  The tide was coming in, and the water came obviously higher during the half an hour we were there playing on the rocks.  The bigger boys were wearing their crocs, so they were able to walk in the water.  Joe wanted too, also.  Even though he had his church shoes on he ran through the water when we weren’t watching.  We must find his crocs and keep them in the van!
