| Auckland Botanical Gardens |
From Omani Beach we drove along the coastal road and found ourselves in Auckland. I tried to navigate us to the central park area so we could visit the fernery and botanical gardens - it took far too long as the one way sytem in town was all undergoing roadworks - needless to say we got there eventually!

| Honey shop, with several hives |
After our lunch break at Orewa beach - a short drive outside of Auckland, we got back in the van for an hour or so and stopped off, as it was too hot to sit in the van, for refreshment at a honey farm.
Several spoonfuls and a few jars purchased later, we stopped for food supplies in a strange town called Warkworth.

| Camping by Uretiti |
Our destination for the night was Uretiti Beach - a DOC site located in sand dunes right next to the sea. After an early tea we went for a dusk walk along the beach and watched the sun set behind our van, perched up high on a sand dune - we prayed it didn't rain as we would most certainly get stuck!
