MONZA-Morgans Over New Zealand Again: Day 7- Cooked on Cooks Beach- A Very Busy Day

We are now on Day 32 and here I am back finishing up Day 7. I still have a few very old days to complete before I start getting current.

The group was invited to coffee at Morgan Owners Tony and Alice at Cook's Beach quirky "A" Frame beach house. We gathered to wonderful scones and other breakfast treats, and of course, arranged the Morgans for photo ops.

The guys were doing the usual work on (we think Richard's) Morgan.

The son did a history lesson for us on Capt Cook. He was really cute.

We presented the very rare MONZA plaque to Tony and Alice for having us to Cook's Beach and arranging the day. Although we did not return to their home for drinks later, we hear those who did had a great time. THANK YOU TONY AND ALICE.

After coffee, we departed north to Shakespeare Cliff, which overlook's Cook's Beach and Whitianga.

Then off to Hot Water Beach. We had our swim suits, but didn't change into them, nor carry them down to the beach. But others had a wonderful time in the natural Hot Pools at low tide. The water is VERY HOT.
