I got very very wet and very very soggy time and again but I didn’t give up , I didn’t shrink and I didn’t dissolve. I gritted my teeth and I hung on tight and I didn’t get blown off and I GOT THERE!!
Northland is very beautiful when you can see it but most of the time we couldn’t after we left North River Treks, cos it rained a lot. But the forest was all dripping and green and full of hidey holes for bears . I think it’s a better place for bears than the beach anyway.

The tide was really high and the waves were really big and to be honest I was really frightened on the Tuesday morning. I hadn’t slept all night cos the wind was so strong and I thought the tent would blow away and take me with it. The tide went down later and the sun came out for a bit so you can see how big the beach is

There’s a lighthouse at Cape
Reinga, So the sailors know where the rocks are in the night. When you look at the sea it is meant to be two
different colours cos the water comes from two different directions but it was all grey when we were there.

The big boys weren’t allowed down to the lighthouse – I think it might be cos they might leave piles on the footpath – so I went for them and had my photo taken with my two friends . And I was very careful not to leave anything behind….

Now I’m busy trying to remember all I’ve seen so I can tell other people about it, and getting ready for that long journey home. Guess I’ll be in the suitcase again.
I’ve said goodbye to the big boys. That made me a bit sad, especially saying goodbye to Boris. But friends remain friends even when they’re the other side of the world and when I am old and grey and full of moth I ‘ll still remember him, and Foggy, and Ezra who I only rode once and I’ll remember all those lovely places we went to.
I’m busy remembering now . . ..
