Looking north east.
This is the north end.
None came down while I was there.
This next series of pictures is all about interesting rocks.
I'm standing on the headland at the north end of Long Bay Beach. I look around the corner and see another short beach and a further headland. I wish I could keep exploring and discovering what is around the next outcropping, and the next.
It's time though to head back toward Allie and the boys and Jeanne. This is looking south.
I'm nearly back to where Allie and the boys are waiting for Jeanne and I. They want milkshakes it turns out....off we go.
A little closer look. I'm awestruck. -djf
Oooo! The cliffs get bigger on the north end of Long Bay! I used my Apple Maps app to look up where Long Bay is and at first it located me off the Coromandel Peninsula. then I tried again and I found it just south of Army Bay which made more sense for the views of Rangitoto that you had!
ReplyDeleteI like your series of interesting rock pictures. The first one looks like a mud-pot mouth burp.. the next one is a dome-thing rising out of a crater. Then you have giant flatworms crawling along and finally.. a very suggestive (ahem) fertility sculpture. Interesting how the mind interprets things...
Yes, that beach offers lots of opportunities to use one's imagination.
DeleteThere is nothing like the colors of Spring with the blues of the water and sky and the verdant greens. It is just gorgeous and a great way to welcome the warmer weather. The rock formations and stones could keep you busy for hours! McKenzie
ReplyDeleteI agree.
