Jack and Katrina's Place

We got down to Tahunanui beach in Nelson on the one half nice day of the Christmas break. We were keen to see if Guy would like the beach, as he loves the bath, shower, pool and every other body of water he has yet encountered. And of course he loved it. First he dug his fingers into the sand and filled and emptied buckets with sand before he took Katrina's hand and marched off to where the waves were breaking. We put him down in the shallows to let him explore at his own pace and he responded by crawling straight out to sea as if he was heading for Australia. I held him up while the waves splashed around his tummy to which he squealed with delight. We finished off (he was turning as blue as his swimsuit) with a couple of little 'body surfs' amongst the tumbling white water. A very good day and we can't wait to try it again.
