Waiwera and surrounds

We four did the trip from Waiwera along the country road inland following the inlet/stream yesterday. Beautiful day, and a patch of 3kms of gravel within the 23kms we did on which to practice for the Rail Trail.
Heading off around the corner under the bridge leading into the township.
On gravel (below) and enjoying a break from the jarring.



We stopped at a War Memorial that was pretty substantial as far as they go.
And on the way home found this private bridge appealing - if only we could have jumped into the inviting water below.
We did have an iceblock and a swim in the sea at Waiwera before returning to the Cowan's for bbq and champagne. Then a bit of desultory planning for the Rail Trail and some more pictures to view on the lounge wall from John's laptop.
