Coromandel Peninsula
Driving south from Tairua to Whangamata
We stopped to see a logging operation in action
There are three big machines and a truck on the hill on the left
I'll number them from right to left
Machine number one, orange, rips the tree out of the ground and passes it to machine number two
Machine number three, yellow and black, places the logs neatly on the truck
You can see that the land around the logging site has been replanted and is in various stages of growth. We were told it takes 25-30 years for the trees to reach full size.
We continued down the road to Whangamata.q
The smiling sun on the store tickled me
Whangamata is a surfing town
The beaches are beautiful
It seems we found another winner. We keep popping in to places and they turn out to have great reviews, which we haven't heard about in advance. I love it!
Waiting for another tastey meal :)
