2010: looking back

Browsing through my photos from the last twelve months, I get the impression that the sun shone almost non-stop, we spent every second day by the sea and there was something interesting to look at around every corner or under every rock. Click on the collage for a closer look.

Treaty Grounds at Waitangi

The Treaty Grounds at Waitangi are an essential stop on the way up north. You can read more about the treaty and some of the other historical spots in Northland in my blog archive here.

Hundertwasser Toilets

A riot of colour and textures at the Hundertwasser toilets in Kawakawa.

Sea Slug

We found this sea slug on the beach during our stroll but fortunately it was a non-poisonous kind. Still pretty disgusting though.

Whangarei Harbour

Whangarei Harbour from Tamaterau. The beach was just two minutes walk from our first night's B&B but the tide was out so no good for swimming that evening.

First Stop: Whangarei

(that's alliterative for any non-kiwi speakers!)
