Day 6 – Blue Skies are Smiling on Me

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see

We took advantage of the watery sunshine to do a glass bottom boat tour from Whitianga.

These photos  are of Cathedral Cove, this is the beach where they filmed a scene in the Narnia – Prince Caspian Movie – see below!

These are the fish… from the glass viewing bottom. They were BIG Snappers, with blues and gold speckles, very pretty. Some of them were so big that they wouldn’t fit in the oven! These are in the marine park so are protected and can’t be fished.

The rock on this coast is very porous so there are lots of caves along the cliffs. This one was large enough to fit the whole boat.
