This is our third visit to New Zealand and every time we say we are going to Whangaroa . This time we finally made it. It was very pretty and a good place to be weather Cyclone Hola.
Cyclone Hola became a non-event that far north but it was a nice place to finally visit.

| After the main hike, Victoria and I tried to find a route to the top of the other nearby peak. |
| A view down to Fluenta at anchor |
| Out with my little helper. There was lots of rain so check out the colour of the water. I decided I did not want to go spearfishing that badly. |
| The rain also made lots of waterfalls. The kids and I later found a route up the base of the waterfall but forgot to bring the camera. |

| Fog ! The first fog we have seen in years. We had the kids on the bow on lookout and Liz on the radar as we approached Whangoroa. |
| And then it cleared once we had the anchor down. |






Awesome!
