Flag of New Zealand  , Gisborne,
Friday, April 1, 2011

so after one week of woofing in a nice house in the middle of nowhere i came back to Napier (once again :-)) 
I met up with line in the hostel i booked earlier and we made a little shedule for the next couple of days ... 
let the roadtrip beginn ... 
We spend most of the night with playing pool and wodka and later chatting on the internet... 
after a short night we got up and packed all our things together to head off to Gisborne ... looks like we are not so lucky it was raining out of buckets... 
So we visitet "NZ only inland lighthouse" in wairoa and spend there the night in a campground!!
Gisborne:
we continued our trip up to GISBORNE... checked in the hostel (an historic converted convent -- flying non backpackers )and went for a little sightseeing trip around the beach ... 

In the evening before we cooked some nice dinner .. we got an offer to get some fruitpicking work for the following day ...ok so we had an early start again and picked some grapes for 3/4 of an day (and ate sooo much:-))yummy ) 
after one day of fruitpicking we wanted to move on ... the hostel was so cold and we met a few wierd people here ... 

up to the eastcape ... first stop: on a nice littel walk to cooks cave and funny shots on the hole in the wall:-))
Well its a nice and sunny day so we decided to go all the way ut to the eastcape to sleep somewhere close to the lighthouse!! - so we can be there early to see the first sunrise in the wold :-)) 
that wasnt the easiest task - so we drove through the town to find a nice place to crush...
5am getting up and walking up 700 steps to see the sun... 
...where the sun hits the gruond first....
after this way to early start we drove to opotaki to check in the next hostel and get some more sleep ...
