Above Auckland!

We slept somewhere near the Waikato river, some kms south of Auckland. After again some heavy rain, we continued north, until we found a camping in Sandspit. We went there because we wanted to meet a couple of Kiwi (people) :) who live near Warkworth. The camping was really nice and right on the beach. We played pool and a lot of pingpong. The next day we met Henke and Jeanette, the couple we knew from the Milford Track. They were very nice and invited us to stay in their home. They live in a very nice house, with a fireplace and 20 min drive away from the next town. Really cool place.

Jeanette coocked for us a delicious dinner and we talked and talked about almost everything. They have travelled quite around the world and Henke is originally Dutch, but left Holland when he was 17.

The next morning the weather was easying, and we jumped in the back of Henke's Quad bike and drove to the river and a "secret" survival Kauri tree which still stands in the farm of Jeanette's father.

Later on we drove towards Northlands...
