Tuesday

Time to move on - further round the coast. Got sent out via the GPS to an odd place to camp, no…! But found a tiny cafe here in front of the marina where the tide was out to a number of big boats and yachts. A fresh sausage roll, and a savoury muffin right out of the oven made us feel this was a place to remember. Not a place to camp though.
Three good things;
1. Found a good place to camp beside an hotel called ‘The Honest Lawyer”! Is there one?
2. No power so our computers are going to be shut down pretty quickly! Good for more reading..
3. A promise of a good day tomorrow - today was rain but not cold!
Interesting looking spot. How nice to get a muffin and sausage roll fresh from the oven.

Lol - 'The Honest Lawyer' comment! But you've sold me on this spot with the sausage roll info ;-)
February 7th, 2017  
nice to see you, guys!
February 7th, 2017  
This has an old time feel with your choice of B&W. Quaint little cafe. An honest lawyer...well, thinking about that one.

I agree with Beryl. Nice selfies.

Great selfie Maggiemae.You both look very relaxed and to be enjoying your holiday. Sausage roll and a muffin sounds good to me.

Nice shot of you and John, I like it in black and white and it looks good on black.
February 7th, 2017  
Wonderful shot
February 7th, 2017  
Great capture.
February 7th, 2017  
Happy days eh
February 7th, 2017  
Good to hear the silver lining of your find. HOpe the weather brightens for you tomorrow.

You guys look very relaxed and a sausage roll and muffin sounds about right.

Yes we had some great times. We also drove from Nice to Riverside, California and on the way stopped at @darlene Darlene's for awhile. Last Saturday another outing was planned, where we drove fom here to Sacramento to visit one more time with Darlene and her husband. A trip to her favourite park was immenent. We had so much fun.

February 7th, 2017  
Looks very inviting
February 7th, 2017  
Oh, how relaxed you both look, travelling we find spots in out of the way places that stay bin our memorys.
February 7th, 2017  
Looks like a great place for a stop..
February 7th, 2017  
You are having a good trip. I know exactly where you are although I didn't know there was a cafe there these days. The Honest Lawyer is a bit of a contradiction in itself (apologies to all the lawyers out there). Are you coming over to Marlborough Sounds by any chance. We have camping spaces at our place on the beachfront.
February 7th, 2017  
Nice, comfortable shot of you two :)
February 7th, 2017  
Sounds like so much fun! And I like how we can see folks relaxing on all the benches.

Quaint little structure, great find and relaxed capture.

@kiwinanna Probably not due to the Picton Kaikoura road not being open - would have to back track. In the meantime Nelson has put on a wonderful day! Sitting on waterfront with coffee
February 8th, 2017  
You both look so relaxed... and well fed by the sounds of it! Did you do this with a remote or a timer?
#1LOL I don't suppose so
#2Nice to have added incentive to read
#3Always better to caravan on a good day weatherwise
February 8th, 2017  
Love this! It definitely does have an old time feel!
February 8th, 2017  
Lovely selfie. The BW tones are great!
February 8th, 2017  
Looks like a great place to stop. Dinky little café.
February 8th, 2017  
@rustymonkey Miles away from the main road but people kept coming - they remembered the quality of the food!
February 8th, 2017  
@maggiemae I understand completely - it is such a shame the road is still closed as it was so scenic. Enjoy Nelson as it is such a beautiful place. We lived there for many years until our kids left home.
February 8th, 2017  
Wonderful selfie...I always enjoy seeing the photographer in some images,
February 8th, 2017  
You both look chilled out...and all the better. Your self timer must have a reasonable delay to enable to look so composed after a quick dash back to your chair. How to keep fit whilst on vacation!
February 8th, 2017  
It looks very inviting!
February 8th, 2017  
Haha!! Love your commentary
February 8th, 2017  
love the narrative great memory too
February 8th, 2017  
ah, the traveling life! This inspires envy (or hunger for sausage rolls perhaps).

Looks like such a wonderful place to spend time. Not many honest lawyers at all. You make me laugh. Raining here again in CA. We are full of water, rain water that is. Just in time for Bruni and her husband to leave. So sad to see them go. Never enough time to spend with people. We had such a nice time together.

You two look very cool and relaxed... just as you should be on holiday. Surprised that your car needed new tyres so soon... I traded in my last one with over 80K km on the clock and still on the original tyres.

@vignouse The damage was done early on, Richard - wheel alignment was out!
February 10th, 2017  
@maggiemae Yep, that would do it :-((
February 10th, 2017  
Hee hee honest lawyer, nice one of you both, love the mono.
