Easter

Hello!

We had a fabulous Easter Sunday! Hope the Easter bunny was good to you guys...we went to church in the oldest church in NZ - pretty neat! And then hit the road headed North to Cape Reinga. Like I said in the last post this is spot where the Tasman Sea meets the Pacific - there is a whirlpool where they meet. And this is also the place the Maori believe they go to enter the spiritual world - so it is a very sacred spot.

From there, we drove a few kilometers to the "giant sand dunes" of Te Paki. These sand dunes are HUGE!!! You hike up them and then "sand board" down in a sled :) It was SO fun!! I BUSTED and flew out of my toboggan and Jessie got it all on her camera - I has sand in my teeth from having my mouth open from screaming and laughing.

So - not too shabby of an Easter Sunday, I'd say!
