Helena Bay Cafe and Art Gallery

Last week B and I were on a mission to visit Helena Bay which is just before Whangarei. On the way back from the beach we stopped at the Helena Bay Art Gallery and Cafe to have some lunch. After scanning in our vaccine passes and ordering some meals we were surprised to see quite a few other groups of people there. This is very positive as so many kiwis are trying to support local businesses. New Zealand's international borders are soon to be opening up  which will bring in so much more tourism, I think it's time to get back to some kind of normal now that covid is out there.

I have a tendency to get car sick and have done since I was little but I find some sort of fizzy drink normally helps to settle my tummy. The road into and out of Helena Bay was extremely winding through alot of tight corners.

I didn't get too many photos as we needed to get back home for an appointment so I managed to get a few shots here and there of some of the sculptures that we did see.

We are gong to try to get back there before we move so we can get some more in depth photos of everything else that was there.

I couldn't help but like this blackboard sign that I saw above the counter - my one cup of morning coffee works wonders for me so I can appreciate the words.
