For most of the day we continued to let Helen rest her foot. The swelling apparent in the morning did go down which was encouraging.<\/p>\n

Late afternoon we went ashore and dragged the dinghy all the way up the beach due to the incoming tide. We went for the 5pm movie at the local cinema. The cinema at Onerea has to be the best we’ve ever visited. Rather than regular cinema seats it has about twenty comfy sofas from two to four seaters. They were slightly tiered so the ones further back could see over the ones in front. It was a perfect way to watch a movie. We watched “The Ides of March”, a political thriller. Not the sort of movie we’d normally go out for but we enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

Although we had the option to do so, we decided not to take out a curry and eat it while watching the movie. Instead we went to the restaurant next door straight after the movie by which time we were quite hungry. All in all a good evening.<\/p>\n

For today we’ve booked a wine tour. They were all booked out over Easter but with Helen’s foot we’d have waited anyway. This should be a good way to get to see the island as well as taste some of the wines made here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
