Motueka...

………………………..………Beach



Another hot day with only a gentle breeze disturbing any air currents. 

A late morning high tide and a swim was perfect - my first for this summer. Finally the scar has healed, plus a wait of two weeks and now I’m cleared for a much loved summer pastime. 



Many thanks for the visits, comments and stars for the sky diver - and just in cases you thought it was me whooshing through the sky I can assure you it wasn’t!!
