After a few days at the Coromandel Peninsula we headed up north of Auckland to the Bay of Islands and Waitangi...which (for those of you ignorant of NZ History) is where the British Gov signed a treaty with the Maoiri tribes in 1840 giving them rites and independence within British Rule...tis the founding document of NZ and their National Holiday is Waitangi Day..went to the Maoir tribal house where the treaty was signed by all the various tribes....t'was interesting..Stanley of course came along for the ride!
