We began in Waihi, headed to a town called Whangamanta (all Wh words sound like Fs), then on to Tairua where we saw three teenage boys taking pictures of themselves jumping off swings. Clearly there isn't much to do in that town.
We stopped at the Hot Water Beach in Hahei, but since it was cold, neither one of us brought a bathing suit or a shovel to dig up the hot water from underground.
We finished our day trip at Cathedral Cove. We didn't get a chance to travel down the actual cove, because it was getting late, but we took pictures and will definitely going back to do some snorkeling once it warms up.
Jen had been doing all the driving, so I finally got behind the wheel for the two-hour drive back home. I'm glad to report that I only drove on the wrong side of the road twice and that was once we were back in town.
There is a video of my driving on my Facebook page.
