Adventures In New Zealand


The last couple days I have spent on another “island”; New Zealand.
After arriving in Auckland we took the car and left for two days to the Bay of Island in the north part of this island.
On our first day, we explored the sea life with a dolphin swimming trip. It was amazing to see and swim with these wild animals in the sea.

The next day we did a tour to Cape Reigna, known as the most northern part of New Zealand. Standing at that place and looking at the ocean, seems like standing at the end of the world. I could stare at the ocean for hours… At this point you can see the Tasman sea and the Pacific ocean coming together because of the color difference of the water. It is such a beautiful nature wonder!

On our way back we drove “the 90 mile beach” for a sand board experience.
With a boogie board in my hand I had to walk all the way up to the highest point of a sand dune. And there was just one fast way to come back; sand boarding! After one ride down I had sand everywhere, from my hair to my toe!

Writing about this sandboard experience after two days I actually can still find sand somewhere ;). We are now in our new destination for a new roadtrip. You will find out where I am in the next post.

  9. Ahh sounds like so much fun - I live in Wellington, and embarrasingly enough have barely explored this country that I live in, opting to travel to other countries instead!
