Morning view

Give us a wave JP !

Drive down to an cool beach, forget its name ! I'll look it up...

at the beach with Annis !

ganbg on the beach

Half way through the journey my hang over kicks in, last nights tequila kicks in and I feel shocking, feel like staying on the bus, but a bottle of powerade sorts me out and Im playing beach Football with Annis in minutes, he's an Morrocan ex professional footballer, so he's damn good! its ages since I kicked a ball, so glad we have one now !

Swam in the sea, best beach for swimming so far in NZ, went for a run with Aniss, Paddy, and Chris, did a mile down to the caves and back !

Had lunch then shot off to Rotorua, which stinks...no not like Grimsby...but because its a thermal area that has an volcano in the town, don't think its active, not sure my tent would withstand boiling lava !!

Whiratoa

Does it get any better than this ?

Everyone was lapping up the beach!

Olie

About to shoot off and ride the remaining distance about 20k to the campsite...tonight its a bush camp so no facilities at all !!
bye for now

Good morning Tom - just read all your NZ entries at once. It looks very green and lovely, bit like Scotland maybe. Glad your enjoying the trip and glad there are some boys to play footie with!!

Love Mum and Dad
