Quick update from a library in Kawakawa

We stumbled into a library with free internet so we thought we'd give a quick update. Photos and other details to follow at some later date.

We headed north from Auckland to Waipu, Lang's Beach, Whangarei, and are going to Maitai Bay tonight. Mike and Linda, who we know only though a mutual friend, let us relax at their beach house for a few days while we got settled. Now we're camping out the back of the 92 Toyota Camry wagon (same color as Jason's Volvo wagon) that we bought in Auckland. We stopped at a thrift store and bought some vintage cassettes to play in the radio. Other adventures have included: swimming through a waterfall, getting our credit card eaten at an ATM, climbing hills, stargazing, and hiking into caves.
