As becoming the usual, Claire and Dad were first up this morning....swiftly followed by Mam and then me (Ben).
I got a few photos of the early morning beach while the other 3 enjoyed a brew.
A quick brekkie and shower and we were ready for the day ahead. We drove the short drive to Paihia and filled up ‘Eddie’, the campervan. (Naming it Eddie after the TV show ‘Hotseat’ host. Mam and Dad didn’t know but the 2 seats upfront had heated seats ....... very nice on the li’il tush!)
We stopped in town and had a walk around the shops. We called in at the I-Site and Dad and Ben sorted out their activity for Saturday. We were all in the car and setting off back on the ‘1’ heading South back to Auckland.
The traffic wasn’t too bad and by 3pm we were driving again past the Auckland Sky Line. Dad trying to get photos as we were driving and failing miserably. Although he did get some good photos of the vans and cars next to us!! Ha ha.
By 3.45pm we were pulling into the campsite. It was the same campsite we’d stayed at near the airport. We were looking forward to a pint, so walked down the road to ‘The Bog’ pub. As we got to the door it was closed and had a sign saying it wasn’t opening...... NOOOOOOOOO!! Gutted we called into the supermarket and bought some stuff for tea....... ‘Corned Beef Hash!’..... mmmmmm mmmmmm!!
We’re now sitting in ‘Eddie’, watching Deal or No Deal whilst Dad is making the tea. Lovely jubbly it was too.
