Day 48 - Boxing Day Kayak


Chaggie, after a fantastic Christmas day, woke up to yet another superb morning in Kaiteriteri. This was ideal for Chaggie as we had planned to go Kayaking with Staggie's cousin, David.

We went to go and pick up David from just down the road at 10.30 before getting back to Kaiteriteri beach for an 11.00 briefing. After a pretty long brief, Chaggie (including David), set off around the bays and beaches that are situated around the area. The Staggie's paired up and went in the double kayak whilst Chino went in the single kayak.

After an hour of kayaking, Chaggie stopped at Split Apple Rock beach for lunch. We had originally bought 3 hours worth of kayaking, however, we realised that 3 hours was probably too much as we couldn't venture out any further than where we had stopped for lunch. So, we leisurely made our way back towards Kaiteriteri beach, looking at the fantastic views on the way back. Chino had now joined Staggie in the double kayak whilst David took the single.

We got back to Kaiteriteri at around 14.00 and got ready to head off to Staggie's aunties once again, for the left overs of the Christmas dinner! We chilled out with the Stagg family for a couple of hours, watching the Ashes (which was very satisfying) before eating at around 18.00. Yet again, the food was fantastic, you've got to love Christmas really!

After relaxing and drinking for a while after, Chaggie set off back to 'The Plum'. Staggie was considering whether or not to stay up and watch Newcastle again, which would be at 04.00, but Chino decided to go to bed, after another cracking day in paradise!
