Afternoon all,

My wife and I are planning to take a bit of time off during the week while the kids are in childcare — just a bit of a reset with no work and no parenting duties for a day. We’re each taking separate days to do whatever we feel like.

I was thinking of spending the day reading a book, listening to an audiobook, or playing my handheld for a while. Ideally somewhere public, quiet, and near the water, with somewhere nearby to grab food or coffee if needed.

Don’t really want to spend the whole day sitting in a café feeling awkward about staying too long, so was wondering if anyone had suggestions around Auckland?
