Talk about a room with a view!

We were at Hahei beach on the North Island in New Zealand-and it's beautiful! We happened upon a 'motel' and all they had left was a small studio-would we like to see it to see if we would like to stay there-you've got to be kidding me! The 'small studio' is not only the size of a full sized one bedroom apartment (it would be the perfect size apartment for us in Alexandra!), has a full separate kitchen where Keith can make me dinner, oh-and a view to die for!

Here we're just walking around and laying around the beach-well I am-Keith has been out sea kayaking.

There is a Hot Water beach here where you can dig your own hot tub in the sand to soak in the natural hot springs-in theory...we Keith dug a number of holes in the sand and never got to anything but cold water, but it was worth a try! Just a note-this beach is by far the most crowded place we have been to in NZ (including being in their capital city of Wellington!)

From New Zealand
The couple nights we were here Keith took advantage of the kitchen and did make me wonderful dinners and each night we were here we had the same dinner companion-Dolly, an adorable kitten begging for food.

I'm tan for the first time in years-and it's January!! On to Rotorua!
