Summer day at Pines Beach

2 January 1979

Typical Christchurch summer day at Pines Beach. Blue sky, scattered cloud, easterly coming off the sea. My brothers and sisters and their families making castles in the sand. Who is having more fun - the kids or the grown-ups?! My sister is jumping in the sandcastle moat carefully built by my brother. Shorts, bare tops - no thought for UV exposure - or may be "suntan screen".
