This our second full day in Tauranga and that is two days of no rain! There has been plenty of cloud around but nice warm temperatures. Yesterday we took a drive out to Whakatane (you wouldn't believe how that is pronounced) which is right on the water in the Bay of Plenty. Tauranga is also on the Bay of Plenty. Whakatane is a nice spot but we're happy to be where we are. The motel is nothing to write home about but we look out on the ocean and we can walk to everything we need. Yesterday's weather was changeable but the high for the day was 25 degrees. Feels a lot warmer because the sun here is so intense. Today's forecast was for rain but here we are at 3:30 and still no rain. Nice and warm again.
Tomorrow we are going to take the coastal route and head towards Aukland. Ian is hoping to meet his cousin, Alan Spence. Like Ian, he is interested in the family history. And then only 3 more sleeps after tonight before we fly home. We are getting excited about it.
Bye for now.
We are in Guaymas, Mex and the weather is about the same. Cloudy, breezy and warm enough. Did you find your camera? I hope so. Enjoy your last few days....remember it will be cold at home!
