If you haven’t driven past the world cup flags at Aurere, you should. They look so great flying in the paddock of sheep on State Highway 10 just out of Taipa and near the Tractor Museum. Little black faced lambs surround the flags and it is so New Zealand!

The spirit of the rugby world cup has lifted the spirits of NZers everywhere – even in the Far North! Enjoy the cup!

Wine and Food Markets in the Far North

Rosemary — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 17:53:53 +0000

Don’t miss the Far North Wine Centre in Mangonui for a full selection of Far North Wines including Karikari Estate and Okahu Estate wines. Here you can sample a range of wines and make your selections. I especially like the Waitapu syrah, grown by local celebrities Eric and Sandra Shackleton.Then it is a short walk to the BYO restaurant Waterfront Cafe with the great views of Mangonui Harbour.

On Saturday mornings it is a great idea to visit the markets in Kaitaia ( in the Warehouse carpark on SH1) Here you will find fresh ( and cheap!) local produce in abundance. I got some mandarins and organic garlic and loads of greens this week which is a big help with the school holidays. You can even get fish and oysters the easy way here! Also loads of plants at bargain prices and brickabrac stalls. Really worth the trip!
