So today is looking nice so we decide one more trail and then down to the beach. So we go for Kitekite Falls today. The girls really enjoyed this walk as it was much easier then the two yesterday. The falls were quite nice and the weather was very nice as well. Perfect time. We went down to the beach sun tanned, looked for shells for their apartment, and just relaxed. I elected to drive back to Auckland as I really really enjoyed driving. The one thing I really must note is that the road signs here really REALLY suck. I mean sure every now and then I can see an un-named road or a sign not being there, but here it seems to be the majority of street signage is just missing. It does make getting lost fairly easy. Plus when you add on top of this that roads simply change names or have unbelievably similar names to other roads.
Great North Road is the worst offender and I hate it. Get off the highway and its Great North Road, you can take it north or south. Going south it magically turns into NEW Great North Road, Rata Street, and then Swanson Road.... of course this is all in the town/suburb of New Lynn, Great Lynn, South and West Lynn So you could be going south on New Great North Road in West Lynn... OR you could be going north on Great North Road in New Lynn..... most confusing and stupid road... EVER. I miss the D.O.T. back home =(
