Into the Sea

Yesterday, Alex took us on another sightseeing adventure out to a beach town called Raglan. It was a nice little low key seaside town. We had some killer french fries and spring rolls for lunch when we got there. Then went for a walk on the beach, which is really dark sand, in some places almost black! Then we all got back in the car and drove out the point to a place where a lot of professional surfers go. I didn't catch the name but I remember it started with an "M" :) We timed our visit perfectly! There was no surf whatsoever! (There is a big high sitting right of the coast for all you weather junkies out there) So we decided to go for a swim. The water was like the Oregon coast! It was freezing! It was nice to get the blood flowing and now I can say that I have swum in the Tasman Sea!
Now my task at hand is fixing up the car so I can get on to my next big adventure! This morning I got the new steering rack in and almost done, just a few more bolts to tighten up. Then it is off for a couple new tires and an alignment and I am good to go!
Feel free to send me emails or comment on these posts, I love hearing from all of you! I haven't quite gotten my mail situation figured out yet but once I do I'll let you know!
I think that's it for now, I'll put the Raglan pictures up soon!
Cheers!
