Waimarama

Days are long here, in the height of summer. An early morning walk up Te Mata Peak sees the sun pry through the hills and paint over the fields.

Ocean Beach swims, a late lunch at the winery - then more swims in the stream back at the house with the dogs and drying off in the heat before jumping in again.

Dinner is caramelised onion and zucchini topped pizzas with a crayfish side. Some wine and then warm tea - mint and lemon balm leaves picked fresh from the garden.

The sun slowly moves all kinds of pink and gold across the sky before fading to black.
