Bay of Islands, Waitangi NZ Feb 1st

Our first day in New Zealand was a full day of experiencing the culture and island. In the morning we started out with the standard excursion taking us through parts of the northern island and some parks. The greenery is beautiful and the smell of fresh flowers and plants is just everywhere. We also visited a curated restroom from a Norwegian artist that retired to the town and built a restroom out of ceramics.
After our morning excursion we had lunch at a local cafe / pub.
The afternoon outing was a native Mayorka canoe or catamaran. We actually rowed the boat ourselves to the waterfall. The locals described the issues between the indigenous people and the government. The trip included a lot of local tales and history.
We were very tired after and ended up in the spa for hot and cold rooms and then played some cards after dinner. Getting ready for another day in New Zealand, just that the ship is now relocating to Auckland.もっと詳しく
