Awesome Jeff. Happy to take any tips for places to visit. I have a work conference in Rotarua in few weeks. Will be flying to Auckland, driving to Lake Tapou then to Rotarua.

no prob Rob. I'll ring you next week when we're home. I'll save all the local brochures from those places anyway and post them to you.

The one thing about Rotorua is it's an expensive place for anything to do with tourists. By far the dearest place for anywhere we've done in the last 3 weeks.

Home tomorrow.

Abig thanks to the Pincade crew for Friday and tonight's frivolity. Great stuff catching up with the gang.

Some stats. Harry Hyundai has used just under 300 litres of diesel in the last 3 weeks. On the way back from Yee's tonight He clicked over to 4000kms since we started our north island road trip. It didn't miss a beat, was very comfortable and easy for the four of us to handle- very impressed with our choice of buggy.

Some belated pictures from the last couple of days..

Back home tonight and time for some last minute pics from some early sight seeing this morning before we had to hand Harry back:cry

 

Many thanks to all who put up some ideas and input of where to go and what to see:041:.

 

Of the "hit list" I reckon we covered about 75 - 80% of it and have just on a 1,000 pics just on my camera alone :o (bloody tourist - LOL)

 

The 1st 2 pics are from pincade Friday and Saturday night. Some of you AA Aucklanders may be familiar with where this mornings visits were (should have taken a picture of Parnell baths while we were there as well) and maybe even recognise the café sign;).

 

EDIT; Should have added this pic of Harry Hyundai in our 1st two days while he was still pretty clean. Damn logging roads up in Northland:redface (we took a "shortcut" that took us twice as long).

Glad to hear you had a great trip Jeffo . Look forward to catching up with a few ales and a chat about your travels as this is a trip I'd love to do also ( the touring around N.Z. - not just the Pincade part ) .
