We set off on our cruise of the the bay of islands. With the great news that the other people on the our sailing boat are a family with three kids close in age to ours. The weather is gorgeous and light winds for a not very sailor family. The kids had a great time kayaking to the beach, hiking to a view point and playing on the beach. Gorgeous sunsets as the boat anchors in a beautiful deserted bay a fantastic start to our NZ vacation
