A FULL DAY IN WHANGAREI TODAY

Once we are out of bed....

 I'm hoping we can do some serious walking around today.
Stretch our legs after our trip up yesterday.

I would love for us to drive out to the coast today.

 So... let's see what we get up to!

 ONWARD...

 Well... we got out of bed at around 10 am!  It was cool.
Then we got in the car and headed out on the coast road... up to Whangarei Heads  and a couple of other beaches on either side of the peninsular.

 It was lovely, and I got a few nice photos... which I will share in no particular order, and no captions,  cos I AM on holiday after all.  *smiles*











ABOVE:  and there you have it, so gorgeous photos of our day so far.

 On our way home, I got horribly car sick!
Probably due to me having breakfast... not used to eating before 12 midday.
So, we came back to the motel to settle my tummy.

 And started watching a movie "The Martian" with Matt Damon.
Very captivating.

 Well...we've had an awesomly lazy afternoon and evening. We watched another Matt Damon movie this evening... "Jason Bourne".. it was another rather typucal shoot 'em up...bang bang movie. So-so.

 Off to bed. Leaving for Paihia in the morning.

    It's such a nice scenery going out to Whangarei Heads - haven't gone out that way in way too long :) thanks for sharing pics, will encourage me to make an effort though the road is definitley challenging (you could have felt queasy with or without breakfast!)

      Btw, I've often wondered if Whangaparaoa peninsula would have looked like this back in the day...

    Gorgeous pics. The one of the boats would look lovely framed. The Martian is a great movie. Hope you enjoy it! J.

    Glad you're having a wonderful time. Must be so quiet! Photos are amazing. My weekend in Dannevirke was really warm and sunny but come back to Wellington and it's crap!
