Wake to the sea and depart by van to go to walk to the tip of the Coromandel. Finally a "spike" is a great word because with our rented van we can not go through, some roads are banned as too risky.
So we make detours to get to Little Bay, a beach ... wonderful! The perfect beach!
Thought for my Mary!
Then we came back slowly towards the town of Coromandel. They wanted a ride in a train but it was just go ... It is
12, one starts to Whitianga for the boat to 13h. We arrive at the information point for booker and we see that the departure is 14h, perfect! But manager explains that the boat was a concern and that the coup is canceled. RHAAAAA what luck! Called the little train to wonder if there is no way to do it. We are told that if 6 people book in aprem there may be a tour at 3:30 but you must come on site as yet no one has booked.
Hop turn it back to Coromandel! I could not believe it but once there fluke, 4 other people want to tour! Yupi!
So here we are embedded in the Driving Creek Railway and Pottery.
My guide explains "a ceramist New Zealander, Barry Brichell, had built this little train to get wood and clay in his studio. " It takes place in the train and cross the forest, tunnels, we see the pottery on the side of the road and arrive in a tower at the top of a hill with a magnificent view on the Coromandel Peninsula !
I love the little train, I can not stop smiling and I feel like I have 12 years, a real treat!
Once the ride ended, a large portion of the road from Coromandel to Warkworth, north of Auckland! We pass on the Auckland Harbour Bridge and see its tall buildings and sparkle in the night! It is superb and it's something a little magical!
We discover a kind of highway without toll $ 2! In fact we have 3 days to pay by phone or Internet. ... It's original! We eat
Warkworth then the road ends up Whangarei where you park at the river on a huge empty parking lot.
