hi everyone!!

we picked up our campervan on monday and made our way south of auckland
to the city of hamilton. we stayed in a small town called cambridge, where
everything in the town closed at 5pm and it was so quite there. first night
in the camper was pretty cool and not that bad, rhi didnt snore too much..thank god.
the next day we headed back into the city of hamilton for a walk around
and a browse through the shops and finished our trip around hamilton with a fruit juice
from starbucks!

we then ventured about 43Km west of hamilton to a another little town called Raglan, its a
really cool surfers town with amazing waves and a laid back atmosphere...perfect!! the first
beach we went to was a black sand beach, which was a nice shock as the it looked pretty wicked.
the views from the beach are awesome, im sure we've taken about 10 photos of the same shot. the sun finally
came out and we just layed there soaking up the rays...jealous??
in the evenings we've just been chilling out in our camper, really not doing much at all and its so good!
since everything is pretty cool and laid back here, we've stayed a day longer than planned just to relax
and take it all in. the weather has been lovely but it does tend to get really windy in the evenings that is
at times refreshing but most of the time too chilly for us. thank god we're not home a!

if we ever decide to leave Raglan, we're heading to Rotorua to soak in the geothermal pools!!

speak soon. hope its not too wet and windy wherever you are!

phil and rhi
