CoffeeWaffle

  Sunday, 31 July 2005


This morning I dug out my old surf-caster, which hasn't been used in too many years. My friend Devon and I kayaked around to a secret spot on Pepin Island to try our luck at fishing for the afternoon. The kayaking and the photography was better than the fishing, but that's OK. We got a few bites but didn't manage to hook anything, apart from one very determined star fish which hung onto Devon's bait until it saw the whites of our eyes, then spat it out and escaped.

Between exciting fishing episodes I wandered around the rocky beach with my camera...

Today was one of those days that just seem to flow.

I stopped on the way to work at Tahunanui beach. I just had to get a photo of the western ranges as the first rays of sun lit up the snow, while the mist still lingered in the valleys below...

After work there was a nice gentle northerly breeze wafting in across the harbour, so I stopped at Neale park to fly my 'Quantum' stunt kite for a while...

...followed by a little stick throwing for Kaycee...

Just as the wind dropped, and Kaycee tired of the stick game we were treated to a fervid sunset over Nelson...

Here's a new blog to watch. Dom Mee intends to cross the atlantic in an ocean going kite powered vessel. The boat is only 14 foot long but it has the latest navigational and comunications equipment packed in there and he'll be blogging all the way. Should be interesting. I would have thought the boat would be bigger.

Break a leg Dom :)
