Now that the trip is all wrapped up, here are a few of my favourite images.

Our last morning of the trip and we finally see the sun! A few shots in the Hawke's Bay before heading home.

Our last day in the East Cape, today we head to Napier.

Day 7 - we hid from the rain under the shelter of the trees at Eastwoodhill Arboretum and visited the Rere Falls.

Our next stage of the trip, staying in Gisborne. Tolaga Bay Pier a must see for anyone in the area.

East Cape sunrise (some colour finally!) and a trip up the lighthouse.

The start of our East Cape leg of the trip. Whakatane to Tokomaru Bay and a couple of great finds along the way.

Waking up at the VR Rotorua Lake Resort and thinking the benefit of this is that Lake Rotoiti is right outside our door... Problem is...

A slow start to the morning as sunrise didn't look too interesting... We went down to the beach near the batch to see what we can find. ...

Day 1 of our East Cape roadtrip - first stop, a short throw away from Turangi.
