We are leaving Auckland today and can tell you it is a beautiful city and one where we could live. For those of you that have been here, I am sure you will agree. Nothing new to report on the blog, just wanted to give you our proposed itinerary over the next month or so. We are heading south from Auckland and will essentially be travelling both islands, going down the Pacifiic side then crossing over to the Tasman Sea side (east) on the South Island then reversing sides when we head north.
Heading south we plan stops in Coromandel, Whitianga, Tauranga, Whakatane, Rotorua, Gisborne, Napier and Wellington before we cross the Cook Strait onto the South Island.
Still heading south we plan stops in Picton, Nelson, Greymouth, Franz Joseph, Queenstown, Milford Sound and Invercargill before deciding if we have enough time to catch the ferry to Stewart Island in the extreme south.
Heading north we plan to stop in Dunedin then up to the Mt Cook recreation area. From there to Christchurch then back across the strait to Wellington. Onwards we go up the Tasman sea side of the north island to New Plymouth, Waitomo through Auckland to Whangarei to
Paihai and the Bay of Islands. We then make the short jaunt up to Cape Reinga on the extreme north tip of the island.
Sounds like a journey...we will let you know how it goes.
Cheers everyone!
