Long Weekend in Russell // NZ Travel Photography in the Bay of Islands
You know when you are in the throws of winter, and you really just need to ‘get away’? Yeah, that was us this past weekend. Russell is a favourite spot of ours and at just over 3.5 hours drive from Auckland it still feels like a world away. It takes us a little longer to drive than that – you need to stop at Kaiwaka for Dutch ‘drop’ (salty licorice for the uninitiated). I’ve started to notice that once IĀ get on that car ferry at Opua something ‘clicks’ in me and I instantly feel like someone has switched my holiday switch.
