Kawhia

The school holidays aren't complete without a fossil hunt at Kawhia.  We found fossilised shells and belemites (fossilised squid). Tighe just looked for crabs and bones - and he discovered plenty of those!

We decided to take advantage of the tide, and boogie board down the sandhills at Ocean beach.  Low tide was hours away for the hot water,  so the boys ran up and down sandhills.  I looked for spiral shells, and tiny purple shells.  There were jellyfish on the beach which fascinated Tighe.
