Nothing sets your day right like a trip to Morris & James, Pottery, Tileworks & Café-Bar about an hour’s drive from Auckland near Warkworth, in the heart of Matakana Coast Wine Country. The relaxed ambience and sense of timeless beauty is found in the gallery. Famous in New Zealand each piece is hand decorated with abstract modern and New Zealand iconic images. Take a look online. They ship overseas too.
Remember getting there is often the best part of the journey. On the way we saw magnificent views on top a narrow ridge. The trees conformed to invisible winds and dense grasses gnarled and matted lay on the rich dark earth.I think they have been here since the beginning of time.
Orewa beach is a long strip of sand that makes for perfect swimming, surfing, and boating. Here the clouds touched and mimicked the north island's reach. I read that New Zealand is called the land of long clouds. These clouds must have been around the day they named it.
