Yesterday we set out early in the morning for Cape Reinga at the north tip of NZ. It was a long drive up there- the kids coped fine. The view out into the ocean was huge- it just went on forever! The light house was above where the Tasman Sea and Pacific ocean meet- waters were rough and murky there. I can't believe all the different colours of blue.
Then came the sand dunes and boogie boarding! The kids were all keen until they had to climb these TALL hills of HOT sand! The loved the rides down, but then there was the climb up after..... It was a great memory!
Then..... I agreed to driving down a river bed and onto 90 mile beach! I was pretty nervous but the kids loved all the splashing water over the CRV. We drove on the beach for 40 minutes at 80 km/ hr- the beach was amazing! As far as you could see- there was beach. The waves were huge and boy was I glad to get off at the end!
Our Buzz wagon was filthy and sandy after all that excitement. We all had good sleeps last night!
