After sporadic posts and a brief hiatus I am back to posting! After art school finished, I have been keeping busy with work and enjoying summer. On Thursday we headed out to Piha beach in a convoy of cars, stopping for some delicious ice cream on the way; spending the afternoon and early evening in the glorious sunshine. Barefoot, we climbed the rocks over to the lagoon where we swam in the warmer water, and saw a seal only about five meters away on the rocks ahead. Spending time with amazing friends, eating melon, reading a travel book, getting a tan, and having Piha burgers and chips for dinner; the perfect start to summer! I hadn't been to Piha since the beginning of the year, and it was nice to make new memories at a place that will always be special.
Last night we launched fireworks and sat around a bonfire in the backyard of my friends' flat - was lovely just to relax and watch the flames dancing.
