    Highway 25 and Hot Water Beach

    March 19 in New Zealand ⋅ 🌙 13 °C

    Poppy was up early so she came into the mezzanine bed with us. She was so cute and cuddly. Packed up the camper to drive to Thames and then on to Coromandel and finally Hot Water Beach Top 10 holiday park.
    Picked up a balance bike and helmet for Rosie on the way.
    Some beautiful views of the Firth of Thames as we drove up the coast to Coromandel. Some quite steep climbs and bendy roads but the camper managed it well. The girls did great for most of the drive but it was about 3hrs in total and I think they were both pretty sick of driving by the end!
    Arrived at the campsite in time for a quick play on the 'bouncing pillow' trampoline.
    Got fish and chips from the campsite and headed down to Hot Water Beach with Rosie on her new bike. She was a very happy girl :)
    Found some of the hot water springs and paddled our feet in the pools.
    Lots more people here and families too. Looking forward to exploring all the activities tomorrow.
