Mangawhai Heads


Saturday 3rd July
Carol and Frank took me to see their bach at Mangawhai Heads, around one hours drive north of Auckland. We stopped off at this beautiful stop of on the way, just these awesome views on to typical New Zealand country.
When we arrived we were all amazed by the amount of work that had been done in around two  weeks, one thing you can say about Kiwi's is that they don't mess around when it comes to building houses. But seeing the structure and layout of the whole thing was very exciting!
The Afternoon was just so sunny and Carol and I walked along the beech for ages. Saw lots of shells, pohutukawas and even a sand piper in a rock pool, apparently a rare sight. Ended the day with fish and chips for dinner, tasted really good!
On the way home I fell asleep whilst talking to Frank, Yet when I got to bed herdley slept a wink. Jet lag is bazaar!
