    OK... order placed at Cvana and we are on our way... First stop at the big bottle.. well maybe the not so big bottle at Paeroa where we stopped for lunch. Just had to let my cardiovascular system know that I am still the boss!! Then we went onto the Miranda Tasman Hot Pool Camp as they are the only ones now with a hot pool to soak in.
    Tomorrow we are off to... I am not to sure where yet!! I will keep you posted.    Leia mais

    We are now in Helensville

    28 de fev.–3 de mar. 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    We left Kaiaua just after the break of a beautiful dawn this morning. The night before we could not go past trying out the Kaiaua Fish & Chip shops world famous fish and chips... totally yummy!
    Arriving in Helensville we received favour from the Secretary of the A&P Show grounds who has allowed us to park up (with our doggie) for a couple of nights. They have a major production coming in here late on Saturday therefore we need to be gone.
    Off out this afternoon to where ever He leads us.    Leia mais

    Another "Wonder Time" PYL!

    1 de março de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    Yesterday we arrived in Helensville and were given permission to park up at the show grounds.. right in town. Due to a major production being filmed here we need to be gone by Saturday afternoon... therefore we went out to the Helensville golf club to check it out. No way could we park there as the small carpark was totally full of vehicles.... therefore heading back into town we stopped at a wee market at an old church on the corner with the main highway. We had been close friends with a wonderful couple back in our Takapuna days but had lost their contact when they moved and we moved... could not find any trace of them anywhere but could remember that I thought they had moved to Kaukapakapa. Anyway, the lady at the church tried phoning friends to see if they knew our friends... nope!! A guy standing beside me said ... "I will put it out on the community FB page!" Within 60minutes we received a call from Julia saying her friend had seen the post and that we were looking for them, and just that morning they were talking and wondering where we were and how we were doing. Last night we spent time catching up and are back with them later today for dinner. By the way.. Gavyn has been very very sick in and out of various hospital for months trying to sort out his problem... he only came home 2days ago... I believe God has this in His hands.. "ALL SORTED!" Thank you Lord!Leia mais

    Where Do We Start???

    1 de março de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Our trip to Helinsville was very memorable. Praying, discipling, more praying, and encouraging a Security Guard at the film set we were allowed to camp at for a few days... he had been baptized through water 2 weeks prior and was confused about his walk and faith!! A long talk and a time of prayer brought him right. A trip up to Shelly Beach, and a hot swim at Parikai, then off to Henderson for 3 days of ministry.
    For the next two weeks we have a hospital appointment, funeral to attend, new awning for the manufacturer to fit to Waymaker, school reunion to attend, and Cooper's Run concert to get to.... a busy time is coming up... totally awesome!! TYJ    Leia mais

    Not So Much A Pilgrimage

    10 de março de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    We are off again but this time to Christine's 60th High School Jubilee in Papatoetoe. We spent last night in Pukekohe; Maurices place of birth and caught up with Neville and Sue, one of his cousins.... a great evening.
    Today we came through to the old Jolly Farmer Inn in Drury that is now a Irish Pub with a commercual camp ground attached. Chrissy got the laundry done, we then went for a wee walk into the village and then home to Waymaker for tea.
    Tomorrow we are off to Aorere College for the Alumni verses Student rugby game and the opening reunion event.    Leia mais

    Further up the highway....

    13 de março de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    Moving right along .. on our first night out we managed to catch up with my cousin Neville and his wife Sue from Buckland... a wonderful night of reminiscing and eating!!
    Then we were off to Christine's Aorere College 60th Reunion... a fun and very well attended night. To cap it off, we were given permission to park Waymaker up in the school teachers' carpark for the night, which was right next to the hall... awesome.
    Sadly, in the morning while packing Waymaker up to travel I had a fall.. was cut up a bit but nothing, broken.. praise God!
    We were then off to the old Jolly Farmer Inn in Drury that is now an Irish Pub with a commercial Caraven Park connected to it. Of course we celebrated St Patrick's Day with all its music, singing and dancing... well until around 5'ish!
    Next morning we were off to the Thames Coast for a wee bit of relaxation and for whatever He has for us. We are now parked up beside the Firth just a couple of km's north of Thames while totally enjoying the view while listening to the waves as they gently lap the shore.... bliss.. total bliss!!

    Eventful Two Days

    19 de março de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Our first stopover on the Thames coast was eventful as a couple from a neighbouring motorhome called in to visit. They attend a Baptist Church in Rangiora, and a couple of hours discussing scripture pursued.
    The next morning we were off to Coronandel township but felt led to stop for morning tea on a large reserve streaming in sunlight. (see photo) Soon after we stopped another motorhome arrived and parked away from us then a gentleman got out to head off to the public toilets, waved to us and then changed his direction and came to us. He and his wife attended the Baptist Church in Cambridge.

     They had just bought their motorhome days earlier and were out giving her a run. They too had a small dog called Levi so Levi and Cyrus spent time sniffing one another while we sat at the bbq table and discussed scripture!! 90minutes later after a beautiful time of prayer they went their way.. except.. Roy came running back to say Levi had collapsed and his eyes were popping out! I went to him and got down to pray over him and within seconds he came to his eyes were right and he started getting to his paws... they left shortly afterwards to take him through to a Thames vet to be checked over.
    We continued onto Coromendel to see what the next ministry our precious Father has for us... stopping on the way for oysters, muscles, crab sticks, and kumera chips... awesome!    Leia mais

    Thornton...

    10 de abril de 2024, Nova Zelândia ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Having spent three days parked up by the new Pukehina Surf Club we caught up with some other happy motorhomers and also did a wee bit of bike riding and fishing. Well, Christine did the fishing as she caught fish.. 4 kauwhai while I fed them for her. We have now moved onto Thornton Beach Camp.. an absolutely wonderful camp with full amenities and is right on the beach and river estuary... awesome!! We put up our new awning for the first time... it works well. We will try our hand at fishing over the low water later today.
    Because we have Cyrus, we were placed in the area near the main gate which is specially for dog owners... we were the only ones here until a few minutes ago.. we now have neighbours!! The area is very handy to the store and showers/laundry!!
    We move off tomorrow to spend a few days with dear friends at Rotoiti Forest before heading south to Opunake to speak at the Wave Church.    Leia mais
