Today I booked and paid for my ferry tickets, so it definitely on. An adventure to the far north to kite buggy my little heart out.
Last year I went to the Muriwai Moose Meet, near Auckland, where a bunch of kite buggyiers get together and camp in the sand dunes of Muriwai Beach for a weekend. This year I'm taking two weeks off work and am going to explore the whole area in my camper-van, with the Muriwai weekend in the middle of that time. Kaycee will go and stay at my parents house, where she will be spoilt to bits.
Tonight I have been surfing the net for good-looking camp grounds and advice on beaches. I plan to explore from Auckland, all the way North to Cape Reinga, the Northern most tip of the country. Already on my search I found 240 kilometres of drivable, (and therefore buggyable), beach. Ninety-mile beach is actually about 90km, Ripiro Beach is 100km long, and Muriwai is about 50km. We should be into summer by then with consistent afternoon sea breezes. Can't wait.
And the best-site-I've-found-tonight award goes to... northland.org
