Got up early this morning and learned some things about the van, how to fill the water tanks and empty the dirty water, still avoiding using the toilet so we don't have to mess about with it, but can't think that will last much longer. Went indoor snowboarding for a couple of hours just to get us ready for the real mountains when we get there. Pretty good fun, lots of jumps and rails although the run was too short to pick up any real speed and before you knew it you were on the lift being dragged back up. Still great fun and much cheaper than it would have been in England. Photos didn't really come out to well, my hands were numb by that stage.
After a quick lunch in the carpark in our mobile home we zoomed up to KeriKeri, pretty close to the top of the North Island. We drove about 250km in about 3 hours. The views were glorious countryside, the roads were quiet, and the diesel was cheap. Tomorrow we have a daytrip booked on a coach to take us right to the Northern-most point. The campsite we are staying in at KeriKeri is great and even has internet access!
