A relaxed dugong! I thought at first the statue was broken, but not so. Master Dugong snuffles his way along, grazing the sea-grass with his flat muzzle.

We are staying in West End and enjoying a relaxed lifestyle while Simon recovered from the Man-flu. Just bringing a little NZ culture to the Aussies. Glad to say I have not got it!


Rather amused at the weather forecast. Some quotes... 
A whopping 52mm of rain. Gusty winds of 6 kph.
Overnight temperatures cool at 11 degrees!

The cafe culture attracts the strangest customers.
