Today we decided to take a trip up to the coromandel region which has lots of nice wee towns n beaches! Made our way in Doris with Graeme driving and chucky was co pilot, I was demoted to the back seat due to my previous bad co pilotting experiences! Turns out chucky made me look good lol! Stopped in at a wee town Waihi where they have a massive gold mine which was interesting! Took fotos etc then the boys noticed something was going on as they were moving vehicles etc, stayed for a bit and worked out they were about to blast so we watched that which was pretty cool. Not a massive blast but saw some rock fall and dust! They are turning the gold mine into a lake in 2020 which will take 6 years to fill so read info on that! Then back in car and headed up to another wee town (can't remember what it called) and had lunch, then drove to whitianga stopped at beach then back down to cathedral cove. It's a really lovely bit, nice walk down then it's like a beach with a big rock that u can walk under. Me n chucky were brave and had a paddle but the water was chankin! Oh and managed to do a pretty good plank photo that I'll need to get up! More fotos then headed back to hamilton -well tried! Decided to go back a different way. Jeez the roads were so windy! Got a bit lost so foned rob who told us to go through like back roads so be quicker hmmm this didn't work lol! And rob would come find us, even tho we were a bit away from Hamilton! With chucky being co pilot he spoke to rob numerous times with different directions and Graeme adding his thoughts in, I thot it was going to be the first fall out of the holiday! We ended up on this dark country road leading to nowhere. While the boys were "discussing" the route I was in tears with laughter in the back thinking how I was going to get promoted to co pilot tommorrow lol!eventually we saw rob coming so he was our hero and we followed him home! Altho it was about 9pm we went out for dinner with rob n Sheena then back to theirs for some cheesecake and bed
