Wednesday, I decide to explore around the area and start at Port Albert. I quite enjoy driving around the area. The tide is coming in and I watch the jellyfish float by at the end of the pier.

I then head out to Atiu Regional Park, this land was gifted to the Auckland Council. I sit up there and catch up on phone calls and emails for a few hours. The view makes the job feel a lot essier. I then take the back road into Warkworth and stumble upon these falls. It is a good spot for a stealth camp, I may have to come back here Friday night.

In Warkworth I get some lunch and buy a takeaway coffee and brownie for Clare. I cheat on Rowan and go Op Shopping, I find a cool enamel pot that I can’t pass up. I head back to Wellsford and sort dinner.

Thursday comes and Skylar is told I won’t be here when she comes homes. “Come” she beckons, points at the couch “You stay here.” I laugh, she wants me to sit and wait for her to come home. I decide I need to do some running around so I head back to Tindalls Bay and run a few errands along the way. I better finish off my organising I began. Few hours later I was done. There really is more I can do but decide I need to be in the mood otherwise I will leave it half completed. One more sleep and Rowan will be home, I am missing him terribly.
