Swarmed by mosquitoes during the night and into the morning. Make our escape to the kitchen. Spend the morning cleaning sand and salt off the bikes. Ride the remaining 12 miles (hilly ones) to Cape Reinga. Very rugged and isolated. Apparently the cape is where the spirits go to exit this world. Return to our empty campground and opt to sleep in the kitchen.Read more

Helene RimbergThey were the worst I have ever seen. The top of the tent was covered. Our nice newish tent has mozzie guts and our blood on it ( mostly fathers).
