Auckland, NZ, Paihia, and the Kauri Walk

We arrived at around 5:00am, and after some adventure with a missing piece of luggage hooked up with our guide, Mr. Jim Archer. We started with breakfast and a tour of Auckland. We left Auckland shortly before lunch time and headed north for Paihia and the Bay of Islands.

We saw a little of the places around Paihia that evening and headed out to Cape Reinga the next morning, with a stop at the Manginangina Kauri Walk along the way.
