Silly me!


I had really hoped that driving on the north island would be better than the south. Nope. Left Napier yesterday at 10 am. Sign said 214 km to Gisborne. Got there around 4:30 pm! Slow twisty road with trucks this time! Had to stop once while trucks took turns as two couldn't pass each other on the road.Then drove a 58 km river gorge that was steep on the passenger side so Linda was tense. Kept on going and got to Opotiki. Just outside, we found a little holiday park. It has been neglected for some time but the beach was magnificent. Great listening to the waves while we slept and a wonderful sunrise.
