Full Moon over Doubtless Bay
Hope you have had the chance to include a break in this magnificent weather over Doubtless Bay! Attached is a photo we took of the superb view from our deck at the Golden Sand Apartments. The shimmering moonlight on the water is like an “elevator” to the moon. When it comes up over the Hihi Peninsula the moon is huge and yellow and it travels across the sky to set over Karikari Peninsula as an orange ball. Very special experience and worth staying up all night for!
