Tasha’s 50th!
This was the year of the severe flooding in Auckland. The campground was cleared out by the forecast. We happily sat in our gazebo drinking into the night as carnage unfolded in Auckland.
We left a day early not knowing how long some of the road closures would last and not wanting to get trapped on the peninsula. The water was up to the top of the single-lane bridge at Whenuakite! It’s the only road out of Hahei. There was no current, so no drama.
