excursion to the north of the north island

good evening! this is my car. it looks good isn't it. that's a picture from the morning near the hurara falls.

i did a 240km trip up to the north.











here u can see a nice beach on the northest point of new zealnand. thats the tasman sea with the 90 mile beach.

here is the lighthouse on the carpe reinga.
this place is sacred. in maori belief, reinga is the departing place of the spirits of the recently deceased. it is the dramatic meeting place of the tasma sea & pacific ocean.









this is the 90 mile beach. i got there at hukatere. its a normal route on new zealand. but u should go with special cars and not with a toy toy toy...

i wanted to try some drivings on the sand on the beach. it was nice. than i tried to get some photos, suddenly a wave was coming and my car gets stucked. i had no idea what to do, i tried to move the car, but the water under-rinsed the tires and here i am...
but the silly people have normally luck! so after 1 minute a jeep came and got me out of this bullshit. with a rented car u have no insurance for this case - so it isn't allowed to go to the beach with the car.
pffffff - no more comments - just have a look.





when i got back to the asphalted street suddenly at about 60km/h the
steering wheel vibrated very much. it was not a good drive. but what should i do... i looked to the tires and find much sand everywhere. "engineer is too heavy nothing"
when i came to the next city i got to the next gas station and took the wash booster and cleaned the tires - tatarata my car is now well doing again. toy toy toy!!!
SO DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME BABIES!
