Day 198 - Foghorn



Foghorn

What does a foghorn look like? We heard one about half an hour ago and quickly went down to the beach (about half a block away), along with a few neighbours from the street, to see what was going on. We saw this boat heading across the harbour and into the fog. It was moving between the Petone foreshore and Matiu/Somes Island, an unusual route for a ship to be taking.
