views from Cape Reinga





We had great weather for Cape Reinga which is at the top of the north island. You could see the Three Kings which are three islands several miles out.  This is a rare occurrence so we felt lucky to see them.  You can just barely make them out in the lighthouse pic.  In the picture with the waves in the middle and the one with the signs, you are looking at the Pacific Ocean meeting the Tasman Sea.  Even on the calmest day there is some indication of this meeting point.  On stormy days the waves are huge, we're told.
