another crazy trip again.
Firstly we planing go to summit our visa for extent, travel in Taranaki area(southwest of north island), but we end up gone to Northland. Is a crazy idea from my mate.
first day (rainy day)
this day our trip like chasing rainbow, we been seen uncountable rainbow in this day. the road to Taranaki is awesome adventure. remember the world forgotten highway must try(remember if your driving skill not good dun take this risk). In this crazy highway have 250 km. in between it no petrol station. There have some off road, some danger cliff road, a republic village, and the most thing the hobbit tunnel. u will wonder how the people make all this kind of this in the crazy highway very long time ago. after 2 hours driving in the highway we finally reach the first town of Taranaki name Stratford. A small town nothing to do there we had lunch n continue the road trip. Next we drive along the surf highway. This highway have all the surf beach along it, but no one
will surf in winter time crazy cold and danger. along the road we meet some weird cliff view(1st time running against strong wind will make feel like out of breath very hard n very tired) and the Cape Egmont. the sadness is we can't see any sign of the Mt Egmont, it cover by thick cloud ai........ We keep driving on the road till we reach New Plymouth the biggest town in Taranaki. this town is a modern town, fancy, big, but nothing can do to us.
after turning around the town, n we end up sleeping at the car park facing the open sea ,Tasman sea
day 2
we going to Hamilton summit our passport, in the middle way. We luckily meet the white cliff sign board, and we dare the went in with the warning that season close. I had no regret i been there. First time i saw something like a goddess place. is a big big WOW !!! we spent a lot time there taking photo, we like crazy for this place.
after crazy we getting hungry n we have to leave to get food too bad...
while on the way to Hamilton, my mate told
me how about we go Northland by today after we done summit, and i end up agree his idea & we head to Northland after Hamioton. While we in the middle way to the most north we have a naps.
Day 3
early morning we start depart with full dark, in the road we can't see anything except tree & shape turn, till we reach 1 of the look out point. is a very nice place we having sunrise view there n breakfast. Then we having more than 5 hours drive to the north of the north mean Cape Reinga. u can see the photo down there, is a awesome place but too bad we can walk too much there we dun have a right shoes to do that.
