Norfolk Pine reflections on Marine Parade
Gotta love early Summer mornings along Marine Parade, part of where I walk each day. This is a road along the beach that's lined with mostly posh multi-million dollar holiday homes.
As you can see on the left of the photo there's one that's been built and on the right are a ton of carparks as this area gets very very busy over the Christmas/New Year season - the beach is extremely popular. Lucky we live 5 minutes away so it doesn't take us long to walk if we want a swim :-)
More weekend reflections here...

hi Carol, it's a nice spot, we dont' celebrate thanksgiving in NZ but hope yours went well :-)
What a great find! I love the Norfolk pines that I find along the coastline roads in Taranaki.
I love the thought of going to the beach for a swim at Christmas!!
It's almost silly season. Let the fun begin!
Gosh... you live five minutes away from all that beauty and wonderful beach? Wow...that's wonderful. Though I'm sure it's a tiny bit less pleasant during the busiest visitor and tourist times.
