Our first stop was Puketi Kauri Forest with 1,000 year old Kauri trees.

But they are...they say it's good luck to hug the tree |
We then headed to Cape Reinga, where according to Maori legend, spirits depart on their journey to the homeland - Hawaiki. The view is spectacular.
Can you see the color difference of the water? On the left is the Tasman Sea and on the right is the Pacific Ocean. |

After a nice lunch along the beach, we headed towards Te Paki Stream to do some sandboarding down massive sand dunes on boogie boards. I wasn't sure if I was going to do it but am so glad I did. The walk up was treacherous so I only did it once. Paul went twice!

Paul is ready! |
Steep climb doesn't quite describe it. |

Feeling proud that we accomplished this dune! |
And the video of Paul coming down the dune:
Our last stop of the day was the Ninety Mile Beach. Driving on the beach with a big bus was crazy, especially when we got stuck. But we were rescued by another bus so it was all good. It gave us more time on the beach to take pictures!

The famous "Hole in the Rock" |
Nice reflection of the sky on the beach - it was very peaceful here |
