On our own again
... Aranga hostel in KeriKeri. We would have stayed at the YHA again but it closed on Sunday. Apparantly there was too much competition between the KeriKeri YHA and the one in Pahia which is more of a resort town in the Bay of Islands. So far we are alone in ...
Kerikeri: Rainbow Falls
Hier im Hostel fühle ich mich das erste Mal nicht so wohl, wie in den anderen Hostels zuvor. Im Moment habe ich mich nur mit den Tschechen gut angefreundet und ein paar wenigen Deutschen. Einige der Deutschen können sehr gut den Hip Pop Slang aus ...

Kerikeri Beach Park
... , but the time came when we finally had to move on. So, from the far north we of course headed south and stayed at Kerikeri Beach Park. It was a nice place, essentially just a big field with squares cut into it for people to set up tents and park their ...

Het zal je achtertuin maar zijn...
... Spelletjes en bubbelbad Na onze 2 dagen Cape Reinga en 2 dagen Cape Brett hadden we nog een laatste, ontspannen dag in Kerikeri. Het wildlife-spelletje dat we uit Russel hadden meegenomen bleek een hit en hebben we, net als het al populaire Tokitaki, ...
Northlands - Day 4
... possible regardless of what ungodly hour I have to get up in the morning. We left Maitai bay and stopped off at Rainbow Falls in Kerikeri for brunch before heading to Opito Bay to kill some time while we waited for my cousin, Matt, to finish work. Matt ...
The Northland
... has been quite contested over the years because the two sides interpret it differently (mostly related to land rights). John, KeriKeri is a nice town full of retirees and hospice workers. The summer population ballons due to everyone wanting out ...
Auckland to Kerikeri
... pretty twisty! Saw my aunt Tracey for the first time, felt like I'd known her ages! Quite a drive from Paihia to Kerikeri (thank you sooo much for putting so many miles on your clock over this weekend!). Went past the kiwifruit farms, amazing ...

The very top of New Zealand
... heading to Kaitaia where we were to stay that evening. The journey took us through the forest of Waipoua home of New Zealand’s largest kauri tree. The largest kauri reach more than 50 metres tall, have trunk girths up to 16 ...
KeriKeri
... it to the boat doctor and still not being fixed we gave up and went to look at big trees. Kauri trees are native to New Zealand and grow out rather than up. Even these little ones were pretty impressive and Steve offtered to take us to see the biggest ...
Packing & preparing
... to work in Kerikeri. We then had another couple of garage sales as we moved out of the rental house, ready to leave Kerikeri and New Zealand. Some friends - thanks TC - offered us the use of a small cottage in Kerikeri before we left so we moved into ...
The fellowship of the campervan
... , Drinking wine, listening to music and playing cards. Good day in all, nice weather too which was good as so far it seems that New Zealand seems rather partial to a spot of rain a bit like home, unlike home though, here the sunshine makes up for it! Love ...
Bay of Islands
... to a pier to take a boat. Even after that, other townies helped me to get to the Kauri. I was so surprised to know New Zealand is a very secure country, because New Zealanders try to pick up even a total stranger. Russell was commercialized as "Romantic ...
Cape Reinga (top bit)
... fish and chips shop" in Monganui, and it was pretty good - tasted fresh and really cheap, not like down at Freo these days. We sampled some fruit on the way through Kerikeri (tangelos, kiwi fruit, oranges and plums) and got back into Pihia by about ...

History Day
... on to Kerikeri, taking in the Stone Store and just manage to join in a guided tour of the Kemp House, alleged to be New Zealand’s oldest building. It was built by the missionaries in 1821 and now lovingly restored is worth a visit. The Stone ...
First entry ever!
Well, its very tempting to do the whole "woke up this morning at about 8... or was it 9. Had breakfast - 2 pieces of wholemeal toast with penut butter spead lightly to be exact" but dont want to quite be that mean! Am in the preparing stages of my trip ...
Tikitour
After hearing the caravan and car will take quite a while to get fixed, we thought we'll go up and see Theo and Tony for a bit. And our chickens of course. Kes can't wait to go and see how the chicks have grown. The first born chicks are now the same ...
Rainy Days!
A bit of a lean blog today! Shortly after we went to bed on Wednesday night, the heavens opened and the rain didn't stop all night - it was so loud on the roof of the camper that we didn't sleep very well! It eased up around 7.30 am so that ...
Dem Ziel so nah und doch so fern
Endlich ist es soweit. Nachdem ich die vergangenen Monate in Kerikeri nie mobil war, habe ich jetzt endlich Anton bei mir. Die anderen Wochenenden bestanden eher aus herumsitzen, lesen und im Großen und Ganzen irgendwie die Zeit herumzubringen. Nicht so ...
