okay, so apparently nobody has a hard time selling cars because no one has written me back. as a consequence i have decided that since i need to get to the ocean i am going to rent a car. so today is my last day in auckland. im just going to go downtown in about a half an hour and rent a car. from there i will come back to where i am staying, pick up all my gear and head straight to raglan. there is supposed to be a bit of surf and if i get there in good time i might be able to squeeze in a surf. i ve been checking and apparently tomorrow is the big day. so im thinking that i will stay for two nights in ragland, then dash over to the east coast for the swell and then go to the south island. that way, when im coming back up i have more time to check out raglan and the northern part of the island/coromandel peninsula. here i go
