T-Car Trip to Mangawhai

We nearly didn't go. We left home in light rain. It began raining heavily as we passed through the city and on towards Albany. It was very tempting to turn around and go back home. We're so glad that we didn't.
We met up with the others north of Albany and things began to look a lot brighter.

Our first stop was at Kaiwaka to visit the Dutch cheese shop. There was a very interesting cafe next door.




The weather had cleared and was beautiful by the time we got to Mangawhai. We had a lovely picnic on the beach. Lots of people were in swimming. What a beautiful place!



Here is a Powerpoint show of our trip earlier this month to Helensville and the West Coast.
