Paremoremo Wharf Fishing

Paremoremo Wharf Fishing

28 December, 2018

Paremoremo Wharf is a place where Sam went with his father fishing sometimes. It was low tide and we caught two small snapper but they weren't big enough to bring home. The kids had loads of un exploring the area while we waited for bites and enjoyed themselves. 

Summer Roadtrip - Whanganui

Summer Roadtrip - Whanganui

Stopping on the way to Whanganui. We wanted to check out the gorge that Mark and Aliesha told us about but it was closed. We passed by some bridges across rivers along the way and saw some car tracks running along side it so thought we'd check one out. The current was too strong for a swim but the boys enjoyed playing with the rocks and logs and we were able to stretch our legs.

Noah's birthday was held at Royal Reserve with his friends from Lollipops, Tyler, Max and Nik. Unfortunately a few kids couldn't make it but he had lots of fun with the friends he had there.

The boys quickly fell in love with this awesome track and so we were straight back there the next day.

We've been in Riverhead for months and we just discovered this bike track just around the corner. What a cool find. There are so many different tracks, bridges and jumps to discover. The boys love this place - though they have to be a little careful at times because it's quite easy to get over confident and hurt yourself.

It's been a couple of months but with the weather warming we thought it was about time to venture out again! We didn't catch a thing - no bites, no nothing! So we ditched the plan and went to explore at Sanders instead. The golden glow was lovely and the boys enjoyed digging in the dirt and finding good sticks to take home.

It's school holidays and Mila's staying a few days with us. Noah's daycare goes throughout the holidays and it's nice getting some one on one time with Ashton. Sam's taken some days off work so we head out to Muriwai. It's a lovely day for it. Randa and her two daughters, a family Ash and I met the week before, are out at the beach as well so we say a quick hello before heading down the beach. We spot two seals on the way down!
