We are not allowed to camp here but there are toilets and tables. Hence, nobody is using them! The temptation was irresistible!

I really enjoy riding along the ocean. The wind, the sound, the power of nature.

Here is the point where we stopped last week with Maila while we were on our way Gisborne. I know I’m not too far now.

There are many surfers here. I wish I would have a surfboard to continue the training I started in Australia in 2008 :-).

I’m tired. The weather is really hot and I’m getting hungry. Fortunately I already know where I’m going to eat. 7km more to go!

That’s the place I was thinking about :-). This is the same spot where we stopped last week before Maila went to her running competition.

I did what I needed to do in the city centre and I’m now in front of the house of Jane and Chris, Maila’s friends. They invited me to stay few days with them if I wanted. Sure!

The surrounding is quite nice, lots of space and low houses.

This is Freely a very very old cat. They found her so they don’t know exactly her age but she is around 20 years! I’m waiting for Chris and Tareg to come back. They went running and should be back in roughly 20 minutes.
