Today we visited the farmers market at Matakana, leaving Auckland early to beat the crazy traffic that always hits the roads on Boxing Day. The market had some great stalls and we had a breakfast of whitebait fritters - beautiful!
We then headed along the Mahurangi peninsula to show Mum & Dad some of the various parks. First stop was Sandspit where there were lots of boats heading out for a day fishing.
Next we headed to Scandrett Regional Park with its historical homestead and farm buildings. Pretty much deserted here.
Final stop of the day was Scotts Point (part of the Mahurangi Regional Park) where we walked along the spit to the island, only possible during low tide, then back to the park for lunch.
