Whangarei

The drive to Whangarei (fahn-gar-RAY) wasn't too bad... but we had to deal with rain much of the way. Some of it very heavy rain. This is the first time in a week and a half we've seen much precip.

Whangarei is just a rest stop and laundry opportunity for us tonight. There's really not much here to see other than the Whangarei Falls. They're pretty... but not quite as spectacular as some of the other falls we've seen on the trip. Still, worth driving out to see.
