Wunderschöner Campingspot
Direkt am Meer mit schwarzem Strand und einem netten Café dabei.
Wir sind den Strand rauf und runter spaziert, habe Steine gesammelt und die Aussicht genossen. Es war leider sehr windig und dadurch auch sehr kalt. Aber die Aussicht war so schön!
Am Abend haben wir im Camper gekocht und danach noch viel gelesen.
Am nächsten Tag sind wir früh auf, um aus dem Camper den Sonnenaufgang anzuschauen mit einem Kaffee in der Hand - einfach traumhaft 😊
Danach sind wir in da Café frühstücken gegangen und sind dann aufgebrochen für die Fahrt Richtung Christchurch. Da haben wir noch einen Zwischenstopp am Ohau Point Lookout gemacht, da gibt es ganz viele Seelöwen zu beobachten, darunter auch Seelöwen-Babys 😍Read more

Day 9
Summertime in New Zealand
February 25, 2019 in New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C
Die achte Nacht verbrachten wir im Nirgendwo zwischen Bäumen.

Am Morgen machten wir uns auf nach Kaikoura. Ich fuhr wieder. Nach einigen Kilometern machten wir eine Pause am Strand. Es waren nur 12°C und die Sonne schien. Super kalt, obwohl wir noch Sommer haben!!!Read more

Day 10
I Can See the Sea
March 11, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
After our early start from Belmont Park in Stokes Valley to catch our ferry, we had a very calm and quick crossing to Picton.
For the first time Waymaker was the very first vehicle off the ferry. We took a quick tour of Picton then set off on the 20 drive through to Blenheim... to an exceptionally full NZMCA camp at the Racecourse.
The next day Bryan and Mo joined us in their motorhome.
Monday we decided to do the usual (wine trail) but little did we know that nearly all cellar doors were shut tight on a Monday.. oh well.. we had a lovely drive.
This morning, we caught up on restocking our cupboards then headed south along the Kaikoura Coast to Kekeringu Beach. We are now all set up on site right beside the Pacific Ocean (& the railway lines!) ...Read more
Traveler Sounds nice. Is that Freedom Camping on beach front?

Traveler No.. we are paying $23.00/ nite... NE gale force winds started building and we were very exposed therefore we have come through to the NZMCA camp at Kaikoura. slight breeze and a lot safer.

Day 76–77
Kekerengu
June 22 in New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
So we packed up the caravan this morning ready to move on but got sidetracked chatting to a bunch of people some of whom were also supposed to be moving on and others who were staying put and were trying to convince everyone to stay so we could have a 5 o'clock party! As attractive as that proposition was, we all moved on!
We continued on our way north to Kekerengu where we met up with Helen and David. In spite of our good intentions to do some housework and laundry, we didn't!! It was more fun to chat and catch up!
We're staying right on the beach tonight and the surf is so loud! I'm definitely in my happy place! And it was all topped off with a spectacular moon!!
Tomorrow we'll be at the top of the south and cross over to the north on Monday.Read more
Traveler That last pic is gorgeous! I missed it..... was watching the rugby.
