Home Sweet Home

Here are some final pictures from Fiordland and the last days up on the North Island. All in all, an amazing experience. I'm sure I'll get around to seeing all of you and telling you all about it, as well as what you are up to. The beach pictures were taken in the Northland area; specifically the Bay of Islands and the Karikari Peninsula. The beaches were were perfect. White sand, clear water, and absolutely no people. We just camped out right off the beach for a few days and spent the days soaking in the rays and cherishing our last days in NZ. Enjoy!

Yet another waterfall. Does this get the point across that there were waterfalls EVERYWHERE?

Auckland
About the best pictures I have of Auckland. Not my favorite place, it's too ordinary.

Nice warm, sunny day on Karikari Peninsula

Puheke Beach
Our own private beach for a few days.

Long stretch...
of nothing but pure white sand with no one to bother you.

Karikari Beach
I just can't figure out why people don't know about these beaches. Oh well, the less people the better.

Down Under
Enjoying a nice day in Paihia before heading home.
