17. East Coast 2

Hitched up the East Cape isolated and more Maori area hoping to get more insight into Maori culture, but really only saw a few Maraes. To Te Kaha

To The Bay Of Plenty , Whakatane cycled around past a few Maori sacred sites.

Hitched to Te Puke and it's tacky Kiwi theme park. Onto Mt Manganui
Imagine : The Extinct Volcano Mt Manganui at the entrance to Tauranga harbour
Imagine : The view down to Tauranga harbour from Mt Manganui

Tauranga is a resort town really.
