Raglan on Raglan Harbour is your typical weekend-resort, holiday homes and weekenders of all shapes and sizes, easily accessible for Aucklanders and Hamiltonians via major roads.
Marysville by the sea...
A busy main drag full of assorted bikes (including a fat dozen of shiny Victorys, much to the delight of Tim / Sir Francis
) Greasy-Joes and coffee-shops, the pattern paving, the metal outdoors-chairs.
But there’s still something uniquely NZ about the place !!
Just look at ‘em....yes, real chups in REAL newspaper!!
And a sign on the door: Clean, old newspapers wanted!
Derek can’t believe it!

Tacking south, down the coast, again.
Mt. Karioi, the old volcano, is the dominant landmark.
