Paihia and bay of Islands Cruise

17th February is our 45th Wedding Anniversary, so I booked a boat trip around the cove of islands and Hole in the Rock. 
Excellent trip with a stopover at Otehei Bay for a swim and to ensure the beer was up to scratch at the bar.
And we went through the Hole in the Rock!

We stayed the night in a camperstop beside The Tipsy Oyster. We had a meal and a bottle of wine to finish the day off.

We booked a boat trip around Milford Sound with Southern Discoveries for 2.30pm. We needed to be close by the night before and have plenty of petrol and provisions as ther is very little at the sound apart from parking and cruise docks. First we had to go through the Homer Tunnel, this closes at certain times during the day as it requires maintenance and it is only 1 way with traffic lights.  Fortunately our timing did not cause any problems.  Absolutely fantastic.

The farthest southern point on South Island and the southern end of State Highway 1, the same road as the one we took from Reinga Point. We have driven the whole length 1403km. We have to go back almost the same again back to Aukland, but not via SH1. We had lunch at the Oyster Cove restaurant, very nice, but expensive, especially with the wine.
