Easter Camping - Motuora Island

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hi All,

I hope you had a great Easter break. We didn't catch many fish this trip but certainly enjoyed the surroundings of the Hauraki Gulf in New Zealand. The hardest thing was coming back home!

Cheers

Alan


All set up. Time for happy hour!


Great to have this on your front 'tent' door.

The boys taking it all in during dinner. One of the few times they were sitting down quietly!

Pretty quiet fishing this weekend. Let's blame the full moon and leave it at that! Was still great to be out on the water though.

It wouldn't be a Kiwi holiday without a BBQ!

Nice place to relax @nalabra

Looks like you're in Europe somewhere. New Zealand is terra incognita for me but seems I'd like to be there) Is water warm enough to swim in?
