The Coromandel Penninsula

Had an amazing roadtrip camper-van style with two friends, Claudia and Nicola, to the gorgeous Coromandel Penninsula. This "land of milk and honey" consisted of rolling emerald hills dotted with cows, bee boxes, and kiwi-fruit vineyards, in addition to beautiful beaches and clear turquoise waters sprinkled with jagged islands... incredible!!

The sunrise over Fletcher's Bay.. yes, sunrise.. :)

Nicola, Claudia and Albert the van. :)

One of the many quirky shops along the way..a buddist thrift store which had a sign offering 'free hugs'..good times.

Kiwi-fruit!

You always were so much better in the morning that I was. I know I am missing some beautiful sunrises. :)
