Heres a photo of Daniels’ for ya all to froth over…
Gotta get down here and check NZ out tjd!
The other photo is a little “secret spot”, you probably never heard of it
Nice photo of Waiake bro, just up the road from me too, i’m in Castor Bay.
I probably just spelt the name wrong though.
Man, I patrolled at Karekare over the weekend, had to sit on the beach and watch those knee high waves all day…
Gotta clarify the rant I had before…
Don’t get me wrong - NZ is the cleanest place I’ve seen in the world! So beautiful!
Just gotta make sure that everyone realises that it’s not beautiful because we are “so good at preserving it”, but simply because we havn’t had time to really damage it yet…
I’ve seen places in the states, like Yosemite, that get unbelievable amounts of tourism, yet they handle it, keep it clean.
Theres around 40 million people in Cali - 4 mil in New Zealand.
If you multiplied our population by 10, things would be looking pretty bad…
Imagine 10 times more people in Auckland.
Enough on that subject!
If you wanna bike around here, it would be a great trip, I understand what kind of thing you like to do.
Just allow way more time to get anywhere than you would in any other country.
Theres no shops near most of these beaches, you’d have to take it all with ya.
Everything is at the end of a gravel road, 20 miles from the highway.
Then to get to the next beach, you have to go back to the highway, go along it for 10 miles, then 30 back to the coast again!
Taranaki would be a good call. For a peek at the scenery, watch Last Samurai (Tom Cruise) cos thats where it was filmed.
Perfect cone volcano, rising out of dense sub-tropical rainforest. sweet.
So come on down, just remember to bring some beer, makes life easy.
