We leave Auckland minus Ethan which was not the plan. For some reason the kids are all getting a little sick of doing cafes...go figure?
Ruby is very excited because she is planning on staying with Mika and his Dad at Waiomu for the first time. It is sooooo nice seeing Mika as I have really been missing him. We stay for lunch and Ruby is in the creek swimming within seconds of arrival. As Matthew and I leave to go north for cafes the kids both give us a cursory goodbye. No tears on their part!!
It is nice to have some adult space and we plan to really get through the cafes over the next two days. First stop the Mussel Cafe just south of Coromandel township. We arrive after it closes and make plans to go back depending on the cafes we see along the way. We go past our accomodation for the night Allambee B&B. Again just south of Coromandel township. A very warm welcome and a nice space to be in.
We head into town and walk the street looking at what is there and considering the reccomendations we have had. We stumble across a new vegetarian cafe that has been opened by a long time resident of the area, Sol Peterson. The cafe is new with Supreme coffee and a community minded philosophy...we shall see how it goes.
We struggled to find WI FI and ended up in the pub. An experience not had for a long time by either of us. Back to the Allambee for an early night as a big day is ahead.
