Today was a blustery and chilly day in Tauranga. It’s pretty
small (well, it’s a big for NZ) but I
dedicated today to wandering it’s streets and pottering about in it’s shops.
I stopped by a local chocolcate shop and treated myself to
some handmade chocolates before relocating to Starbucks (I know, not very
exciting when you’re in a new town) to warm up for a little bit.
I didn’t really take any photos of the town, as the focus is all around the harbour and the strand, which doesn't look quite as impressive in pictures on a cloudy day!
I found a little cinema in the afternoon though and I
finally got to see ‘How to train your Dragon 2’! I cried when I saw the first
one, and I might have, possibly, cried during the second one! I really
liked it, and it just so happens Tuesday is the cinema's cheap ticket night!
There' a big organisation moving into all the rooms tomorrow, so the two girls I was sharing with are having to move to a B&B for 3 nights, and then move back to the hostel, which is harder than it sounds when you've been living somewhere for over a month like those two. Luckily I don't have to go anywhere!
I'm heading over to 'The Mount' tomorrow, and fingers crossed the weather magically improves as so far the forecast isn't looking promising for climbing it!
