Caught 8am flight Auckland to Kaitaia - smallest plane I've ever been on in nz!
Arrived to smallest airport I've seen! Put cycle together thanks also to help from airport staff!! Headed north went as far Pukenui stopped to get supplies and when I came out I headed off full of beans ... In the wrong direction!! Unfortunately it took me 18km to realize - had to turn back and decided to go as far as Rawera. My 96km was only 60km on way up!!
Camped at Rawera Beach - Doc campsite and absolutely gorgeous!! Met German father and son and English couple. Had first swim in sea - bit cold but fantastic!! Sleep ...





Does your tent go up easily each day? The thought of putting up a tent just about every day is exhausting. I guess if your only other option is to sleep on the grass there's motivation!
