February 6-8th, Napier, New Zealand











After jumping back from the South Island to the North Island on February 5th, we made our way Northeast to the east coast of the North Island. Our next destination Napier NZ... the Mediterranean of New Zealand! Napier is home to wine country, art deco buildings with a Mediterranean flair, hot summer weather and a beautiful beach. They have palm trees to boot! It kinda reminded me of a Palm Springs and Napa all rolled into one. We enjoyed a hot three days frolicking in city pools, shopping and discovered a wonderful water park called Splash Planet. We also enjoyed the cafes and took in a very fun concert in wine country.
