Island time

Paradise exists. We’ve found it. Great Barrier Island, in the Hauraki gulf at Auckland’s doorstep. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Fantasmogoric. We’re staying at the lovely Medland’s Beach Lodge, which is right on Medland’s Beach. Ocean views from the bed, beautiful sunrises. And perfect wave after perfect wave on a flat, sandy, lonely, safe beach. Doesn’t get much better than that. Well, add the super relaxed and friendly locals and at least two very nice cafés, one of which does great pizza in the evenings, too. Lots of forest, lots of (young) Kauris, lots of birds. I wanna stay here.
