Sivam, Jellyfish faces the sea. The Chef has won a very recent award. It has outside tables looking North towards the wharf. & Mapua Leisure Park The Appleshed Cafe is at the rear looking back towards Nelson and estuary &Rabbit Island. It is a great place. Desi saw a colourful hat but chikened out on it. I saw some to add to my collection but HMM.?

It looks across the estuary to the nude beach. But perhaps not this time of year.

We often went to the Appleshed cafe which I agree is very nice.
Must have had some gremlins here last evening but my internet just cut out. I was tired so switched off, then this morning I unpluged the router then reset and all is well. This is a good thing to remember as it has often worked for me.
Beautiful fine sunny day in Christchurch
Cheers

Dyna sounds like an idylic lifestyle.. Even though small always cosy and not lots of rooms to heat or worry about..The fact that you can change your scenery whenever sounds an awesome way to be.
but noted that I hadnt replied to you..
The post went back to 2010 How I got to it I will never know
Probably done it to heaps on here and other Threads if so I am so sorry Family and Life just get in the way and after they are sorted I sometimes get on here and catchup/
Keep warm all
Cheers Kai
