Half an hour later and a few more arrivals. We sit at the beach cafe,enjoying morning coffee, basking in a soothing sunshine.
Before it grows too hot we take a walk through open farmland and wild counryside, with vines figs and prickly pears,gently rolling hills lie in the distance.
From the top one last glimpse of Golden Bay before the home journey.
More people settling under yellow umbrellas, sea just a little foamy,
and the Radisson Hotel standing tall in the background.
