Dinner at the regional park -Wenderholm

 
In Auckland we have a number of regional parks , these are free to use and paid from a a regional tax levied on home owners . Its a tiny amount and so worth paying for the parks see http://www.arc.govt.nz/parks/


This is what NZ $12 gets you , two huge snapper fillets, chips and a small
can of Watties tomato sauce (iconic kiwi condiment).
Purchase in Orewa (next to the Countdown)
Drive for ten minutes to the park and eat .


The view while eating , note seagull keeping alert
and looking especially hungry !



On the opposite side to the ocean is a large tidal estuary
which makes for  excellent kayaking if you pick your tides correctly
