Good weather at last

Waitangi Weekend


provided great weather, with fine, clear days, and very little breeze. We had a family get-together, with relatives from Auckland joining us.

Saturday we went to the fair at the Tupare Gardens. This reserve is excellently maintained by the Taranaki Regional Council.

Morning Tea stop was at the tennis court, where several stalls had been erected.



Further down the hill, a Swiss Band was entertaining the visitors with Swiss and Bavarian music: two guitars and two accordions, helped along by tuba, trombone, and for one item an alpenhorn.




Sunday we all gathered at the Seaside Market at Ngamotu Beach and I managed to catch a few of the individuals enjoying the sunshine or watching the kids playing on the playground equipment or driving the dodgem vehicles.
