After the fun day spent with family in Kaikohe, we ventured along to the wonderful Bay of Islands. Spending just a single night in Paihia. A small break in the wet weather came, out in the West towards Waitangi, so we made the short trip along the waterfront to Waitangi. Waitangi is best known for being the location where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840, giving British sovereignty over New Zealand.
