Hataitai Beach Sea Wall Progress

 Hi there

I wish you all a Happy Easter.  Here's the little ornament-thingee that I have put on my front inside window sill -


above:  I bought it last week for $8 at Countdown Kilbirnie.  Countdown has not yet been  given the Woolworths' signage.


And here's some sort of good news.  The southern part of the Hataitai Beach sea wall is all but finished.  It was started before Christmas.



Above:  the southern sea wall at Hataitai Beach.  If you strain your eyes real hard, you can see the black house on the hill that Ruby Wax said she would like to live in.

There's still the northern end sea wall to build.  The temporary sea blocks are blocking practically all of the beach when it's high tide. And at the moment it's terrible trying to get to the deck to sun-bathe, meet our friends, step down into the water, change in the changing shed.... 

 It's like a real maze for us to make our way through the traffic cones, stop-gos, temporary fences, gravel path, blocked off areas, all whether we're in our cars or walking.  

I feel that the road cones blocking parking should be taken away every Friday and holiday periods, or moved onto the pavement by the workers before they leave of a Friday afternoon


... and regardless of all my Easter bunny frivolity, I do remember the true meaning of Easter ....
