Sunrise at Tauranga
In the evening, I beached the boat near Mt. Maunganui and went ashore to buy some pizza for dinner. I took my pizza and drink to a park bench where I sat down and enjoyed my dinner for about an hour. When I returned to my boat, I discovered that the tide has gone out and my boat was left high and dry. I asked three big German tourists to help me push my boat back into the water. When I was afloat, I thanked them profusely, saying "Thank you Fraulein! ". Yes, they were German ladies! Quite strong too!  :)
