On the subject of the Taranaki great white, we spotted a seal on the beach as we were walking along the New Plymouth coast this evening. I thought it was dead until it started wobbling around (as they do!). Maybe it was avoiding the shark he he he...
Seriously, how cool is that - to walk along the beach and see a seal!!!!
- the beach was blue with them the other day as the tide went out and I remember the same scenario from last year. They're little blue ones - they're pretty common here and I think they're called bluebottles - but don't let their size fool you, apparently the sting hurts.. alot.. heard a few stories from surfers when I worked at the shop, seems vinegar is the thing to use if you're unlucky enough to be stung so head to your local chippie!!
