Running away again

 New Plymouth, yay! 

A four hour road trip up north - we ran away for three days. It was getting fairly stressful, living in the works with tradies everywhere coming and going and trying to stay out of their way and dust and power cords all over the floor and so on.

Pukekura Park was far more peaceful.





We stayed at Fitzroy Motor Camp (I had my first birthday there) on the beach at New Plymouth. Mish and I camped in a tent there in 2000 when we did our two month drive around NZ. 

Had a lazy few days, walking around favourite places in the city and beyond.

Monica's Cafe, always good.


Full moon under the Wind Wand on a wet waterfront walk.

Stopped halfway home at the cleanest cafe in the world, the funky fifties Viv's Kitchen with cheap and chokka toasted sandwiches.


And back into it for a few days, before running away again!
