P-Days

I noticed I haven't recorded much about our Preparation Days (P-Days). This is typically on Saturday. Usually we'll get some shopping done early in the morning and then we'll head out to visit a beach. This last weekend we went to Mission Bay. It is about 10 km east of the city of Auckland. We've been here before and it has been a good beach to find sea glass. There actually wasn't too much glass there this weekend, but we got some excellent shells. Here's some pictures with various captions:

Sister B. looking for treasures!

We saw quite a few of these small boats getting ready for a regatta.

This looked like a neat tree!

Playing in the sand.

More playing!

Here's those boats out there ... looks like lots of them!

Running around the lake (4.25 miles) ... I like to do a long run Saturday morning.

Sailing in the lake (3.8 miles) ... I got to go sailing too, so that was fun!

We had a fun and relaxing weekend!!!  

Just got the shells and glass all washed up . It was a good collection:
