so our weekend adventures continue!! We have wanted to come up north to the Coromandel region since we arrived after hearing that it has some beautiful beaches and apparently the best fish and chips!!
Leaving a slightly dreary saturday morning in Hamilton, we drove the hour and a half awesome scenic trip to Whangamata (pronounced 'fongamatar') and were not disappointed with the outcome! beautiful beaches almost deserted and brilliant sunshine!
