Trip to Auckland

We just enjoyed a lovely week at Orewa, just north of Auckland. Once again we stayed in a holiday home we get access to through Stephen's work.




We all drove up taking two days, stopping overnight in Taumarunui and then Andrew and I flew back from Auckland and Stephen drove back in one day.


We did lots of tripping around to the north and west of Auckland. Some of the places we went to were walking around Orewa Shakespear park at the end of the Whangaparaoa Peninsula, Kumeu, the Gannets at Muriwai, Puhoi, up One Tree Hill, Warkworth, Matakana, a reptile park near Leigh, Piha, Whatipu, to name a few.


We also caught up with a friend of Stephen's from uni and some of Stephen's cousins who live in Auckland.


The biggest negative about the trip was that Andrew decided he didn't like the portacot where we were staying, and it was taking all or half the evening to him to sleep most evenings. He has been pretty good since we got home.
