Auckland skyline, from Devonport! 23May06

Baylys beach!

Cape Reinga, the very top of NZ, where the Tasman sea (left), meets the Pacific ocean (right).

Then at the end of 90mile beach, you have to drive 3km up quicksand creek, to get back to the main road, which is a rough dirt track, aka, state highway 1.

Here's one that didn't make it all the way up 90 mile beach before the tide came in!

Driving up 90mile beach (only about 40miles), at about 140kph, north to Cape Reinga!

The best Fish & Chip shop in the world!

Taking the Tardis on the ferry from Russell, to the mainland!

Us at Cathedral Cove! Early May!

These are the happy "Gippo's", at Thames, in the Coromandel!

This is how near we were to the beach, when we were evacuated at 5.30 in the morning, by a Tsunami warning! Luckily it was a false alarm!

Wally & Gromtt! Believe it or not, "Sprocket" didn't bite her! Note the matching "shaggy dog" hairstyles!

Sue doing a little "light house" work! After climbing up 750 steps! Eastcape, she could hardly walk for days afterwards!

Nice place to stop for lunch!

A rugged piece of coastline on the east cape!
