After a stop at the supermarket we headed off to Cathedral Cove and Hot Water Beach. Cathedral cove was closed due to a landslide and we realised we had our timing wrong as well - hot water at hot water beach is only accessible 2 hrs either side of low tide. We managed high tide - wooopsie. Still it was a good spot for cake!
Pootled on down to Whangamata for lunch and then headed in land via Khangarake (sp?) gorge to Paeroa home of the 'national' drink L&P. Thought we'd have to try it but cafe was closed - grrr. Never mind we had bought a bottle in supermarket anyway.
Martyn says it tastes like dilute Iron Bru. It looks like dilute something else and I did not like it!
On through Tirau and left to Rotorua where we set up camp and tried to decide what to do for the next few days but first off we had to decide how to decide what to do, option included:
1) each person picks one thing and the others can either join in or not
2) put all ideas in a hat and pull one out as we finish one
3) each write a list and do the 'common' ones
We decided 'couples negotiations' were allowed which basically means we ended up spending two hours reading all books and leaflets, listened to the boys suggestions and then ignored then completely - I'm joking, tomorrow we are actually doing Barrie and Martyn's suggestions but I'll leave you to work out who picked what when I tell you all about it !
