New Zealand...

First weekend Getaway!

Ok so arrived on thursday evening to slightly poor conditions. It rained my first twenty four hours in the country but I did not let that dwindle my thirst for new excitement. After a fabulous dinner on the harbour with my sis exchanging stories of our travels and catching up for all the time spent apart. We headed off on friday in search of some surf. We spent the first night at this place called goat island which is famous for its reef and marine life, more well known for the diving cultlure rather than the surf culture. Saturday morning we headed north again to a small town called Waipu Cove. And yes we stumbled upon some warm sunny weather and some good swell to go along with it. Surfed all day separating the two sessions with a small break for lunch. Spent the night in the small town getting accustomed to my new mobile home, campervan #3 of my journey. Just arrived back into Auckland which I have decided is rated in my top three cities in the world. Everything over here is just so green and the plants are so full of life. A mild comparison to my time spent in the Outback of Australia where brown seems to be natures color of choice. Here are a few pics from the weekend with many more on the way. Hope you all enjoy!!
