Down to Piha again via the Nikau grove and usual lunch spot by the stream then on to Mangaroa ridge Centennial Forbes etc back to the Piha road where the bus awaited us. Our party, medium fast, was me, Roger, Lindsay and “that goose” Sybil. No idea how many km we covered but it would have been quite a few on a hot and humid day. Back to the bus before 4 to wait for the other parties.
Many thanks Garry for organising this great trip and to Ian for driving us back and forth- and to Whites beach for sharing it beauty with us.
Only downside was the wasps! Heaps of them.
Photos: The pretty blue toadstool, the fast and med fast group set out along N Piha beach (It was noted that the latter covered rather more ground than the fast group on this trip!) Lindsay and Roger at the site of the Auckland University hut. And other shots of the waves we dodged at Whites, the lookout overlooking Whites – a view you never tire of – and I seem to take the same shot every time I go there !
