Going North


After exploring all the activities Rotorua had to offer we set off on Monday for Northland. Finally we were getting into territory I had never been to! Of course we had to stop in Waitomo on our way north. The day was rainy and dreary so we didn't miss anything during our boat ride tour through the glow worm cave. The glow worms still amazed me, even seeing them for the second time.

This was our day of driving. We had to go back through Auckland finally stopped in the beach town of Orewa. We hadn't booked any accommodation, but easily found a backpacker called Pillows Travel Lodge. It seemed comfortable enough, however, Uncle Jay found the bed spring sticking up out of his bed less then ideal!
