Woodhill

Today I went up early to pick up Marika at the farm where she is staying with her horse at the moment.
We booked a tour with Tree Adventures in Woodhill Forest. 🤗
First I got to see the stable and meet all the people there. As all Kiwi, very welcoming and open people 😊
We then had to hit the road so we don’t get too late to Woodhill Forest.
We could only choose between the advanced or expert course because everything else was already booked out. So we took the advanced course.

I can say, we did just right! The extreme course didn’t look funny at all 😱
We were more than happy with our challenges.
We had 4 courses we could do. We start with nr 6 because it was so many people waiting already by nr 5.
We had soo much fun I can say!
It was a really interesting and challenging mix of obstacles. Some were pretty tuff others even scary 😳
But we did them all and we enjoyed every single minute of it!

After that, we went to Muriwai Beach and had some well-needed lunch. We then took a walk on the beach. It’s black sand here and it was really hot too 😳😬
The ocean is pretty rough here, we walked a bit to the water to put our feeds in, very cold!!! Don’t understand how so many people could swim there 😳🙈
On the way back a big wave came in from behind and suddenly we were wet up to the ass 😱
From no water to a lot of water in 1 sec 😳 That was actually scary. The ocean is extremely powerful here. After this wet experience, we decided to walk up to the lookout point! The view from here is really, unfortunately, it was very foggy over the beach.

Then it was time to hit the road again and drive back. We were quite tired from our exhausting trip through the trees 😊

For tonight and tomorrow, the weather forecast is horrible, so I will probably stay at the campground, but I will decide that tomorrow when I know more.Read more
