    Mission Bay means an ice cream and a walk to me. Tamaki Drive winds along the coast to Mission Bay and then there's a lovely wide coastal walkway all the along the beach front. It's so enjoyable to wander or sit and watch young familys, teenagers and pensioners alike all out enjoying the sun. We always go to Farroll's Ice Cream Parlour which used to be owned by Swensen's. But Movenpick is very pretty for those who can afford it!
