We left two house bay, did a little fishing and ended up in Farmers Bay. It’s a nice little bay that we had to ourselves.
Friday once again we tried fishing with no luck. This time we anchored at Motuketekete island. This island is privately-owned and is currently up for sale. We swam ashore and check out the beach and little house on the island. After the swim back it was relax time. By this time the tide was out and B had seen the oysters on the rocks so while Fabian and Silke prepared dinner, we went ashore and harvested a few oysters. I don’t like them but B couldn’t get enough.
This morning the sea was like a mirror reflecting the sky. We motored to Shakespeare Bay on Whangaparao Peninsula. We stopped several times to fish but still nothing for dinner. B took the opportunity to take a swim with the little penguins,in the clear turquoise color, still ocean water.
Being a weekend Shakespeare bay has plenty of boats and jetskiis making it noisy and choppy. But we can’t always have a bay to ourselves. This afternoon B sketched the view while the rest of us just chilled. After dinner we sat and watched the sunset.
