Durantastic

Last night I went to see Duran Duran who were kicking off their world tour in Auckland...

they put on an amazing show and belted out all the old tunes proper style for over 2 hrs...

I highly recommend you see them on this tour, Simon still rocks!

Easter Sunday in the Sun

In the morning we went to Wenderholm regonal park which is a little headland about 30 mins away...



the sea was amazingling calm and clear for our swim...

the majestic Pohutakawa trees dominate the park...

nestled between the Puhoi river and the beach...

crystal clear waters of the Puhoi River...

the day ended with dinner at Aaron and Michelles, with Aaron's sister Sarah and her husband Gareth joining us...

Whale of a time

Heading out of The City of Sails on an exceptional Easter Saturday we encountered many species of wildlife in the Hauraki Gulf...

surface skimming shearwaters

delightful dancing dolphins...

graceful gannets...

breath taking Brydes whale...

the seaworthy sailors...
