The Biggest Ice Cream You Ever Did See

It was a glorious day today, absolutely perfect for heading further up the west coast of the Coromandel Peninsula and wandering over to New Chum's Beach.

Personally I didn't quite make it all the way to New Chum's, but Simon did, and picked up a few pics along the way, while I took some contemplative pics from the rocks at Whangapoua.

On the way back we turned in towards Opiti and O-something-else-I-can't-remember, but first came to Kuaotunu where we hoped to find a much needed ice cream. And my goodness did we find more than we had hoped for! I spotted a couple of people walking towards us with ice-creams and followed the path they had come from, and spotted people sitting outside with what I thought was 2 icecreams each, but no, they were ploughing through the 'Kuaotunu Killer' - a veritable behemoth of a 4-scoop ice cream! And the price? $5. Yep, a modest five bucks. ASTOUNDING I tell you! This is my $2.50 2 scoop ice-cream, and the store from whence it came.
