The adventures, sites, sounds, thoughts and tastes of New Zealand, Europe and the world". Thursday, 5 March 2009 by Kiwiant. Waitangi Day on the Monday means a long weekend so why not make the most of it? In order to do so we headed up to Rawhiti on the Friday night.

We then met Hubert and Corine in Veere for a spot of lunch before making our way to the hotel in Westkap...

Appeltaart in New Zealand: Biking to work in Auckland traffic
http://appeltaartinnz.blogspot.com/2009/06/traffic.html
Appeltaart in New Zealand. My adventures of my immigration to New Zealand from the Netherlands. Friday, 26 June 2009. Biking to work in Auckland traffic. Traffic in Auckland is .how to put it…different! First of all, it’s busy. From 630 till 930 and from 1500 till 1900 more cars are standing still than moving. Auckland is blocked! I have been warned several times by family, colleagues and friends how dangerous it is to bike in Auckland. And I must admit it is! Thursday, 9 July 2009 at 8:41:00 PM NZST.
