Travelling to the North




We have made it to Paihia- a small town in the north area of the North Island.  How amazing the scenery is here!  Lots of palm trees and lush greenery.  Of course there is rain too- but it does not seem too cold.  I sure hope it warms up soon!

We are adapting to the Kiwi way of life.  We eat lots of Kiwis- just not too many.  We know that we wear our TOGS to the beach, have a cup of Milo before bed and will see at least one dead possum as we drive!  We have met many new faces and the kids look forward to more new friends along the way.

We are staying at an amazing place in Paihia- we have a view of the ocean and can walk to the harbour in a few minutes.  We plan to do a few tours while we are here- up to 90 mile beach and out on the water to see dolphins (we hope)
 Bye for now!
