Day 58 - Gisborne to Mahia Beach

Day fifty-eight is a beautiful fine day. We all went our own ways during the day as we all head for Mahia Beach for the night. The drive to Mahia from Gisborne went through a lot of farmland until we hit the steep hills. There were some lonely places in the hills. Coming over the hill into Mahia the sea was a beautiful blue. Paradise with crayfish. On arrival at the POP we were given some crayfish.

On the way out of Gisgorne there was a cruise ship anchored in Poverty Bay and the passengers were being ferried into town. It looked nice as we had our morning cuppa.

This is probably the last night that we will be altogether as people are going their own ways to visit or to make a faster return home. Could be a long night with wine and crayfish.

Later there was a small problem with Don's bus so two sets of legs were under it trying to fix the pump.

Kids we have bought a dunger of a caravan but the money is all gone! If you want us home - send money.
