A strenuous day!

My daughter and her friend enticed me to accompany them to Cape Palliser and the Putangarua Pinnicles.







Then off to the Lighthouse
252 steps


Then down again! Slide on the handrail if you feel like it!


Then look at the seals sleeping all over the place!

Re: A strenuous day!

Ok to me too. Maybe it's because the rocks are camouflaging the seals a bit.

Also, the scree on the rocks is softening them a bit......that might make you think it is blurred?


After looking at those photos, I'm out of breath and need to sit down for a rest!

Some 30 - 40 years ago I would have climbed to the top of those cliffs. Unfortunately, anno domini and ill-health prevents me from doing so now.

I have 29 rellíes living n NZ
They have thus far not mentioned the beauty of the landscape.
Methinks they want to keep it to themselves.
