We are in Parua now, which is about 30 ks south of Pataua. There was no work to speak of at the camping ground, so we decided to make a bit of a change. We are staying in what is called a POP. That is a pop over place, that is run by the New Zealand motor caravan association. It is an area in the Whangarei Cruising club grounds, which can hold 5 vans. Outside the gate there are free sites for up to 3 days, but no facilities, except a public toilet. We have showers, toilets and water available, but no power, so we are running on solar and gas this week. There is also a washing machine if I need it.
We have a lovely view of the bay and all the boats that are moored there. Eddie heaven.
We may be here for a week or perhaps 2. We are going back to Pataua for Easter as it is half full already. I think people are waiting to see what the weather and covid are going to do. Normally it would be busy this week as Epsom Girls Grammar come for a week very year, but with the lock down in Auckland last week they decided to postpone until November.
We have friends come up from Tauranga for a few days in their little camper van, so today we are going to do a bit of a tiki tour around the Whangarei Heads. Its a sunny day, so it should be a good one.
