Bye NZ - Hello Oz!

Well our last day in paradise that is the Bay of Islands! Heading back to Auckland to catch our flight to Oz! Can't wait. We have had bright sunshine and put that to good use by spending that last few days relaxing on the beach! We even treated ourselves to a bottle of chilled wine just to complete the package. Yesterday we visited Adventure World and had a game of 18 hole Crazy golf that wound up the hillside. It was hilarious, especially Baz's face when he lost!! Once reaching the top, a quick way down was to throw yourself down the massive water slide, landing into a huge pool of freezing cold water-and yip believe it or not, Barry couldn't resist! He walked home soaked! All worth it though. Summing up our experience of the the Northland and the Bay of Islands; beautiful, enchanting and definately worth a visit. We've had an amazing time. Next time you hear from us we'll be temporary Aussies!
