We went to town and walked about for awhile.We visited Gate Pa , A final battle site Between the British and Maori people. We walked around the Missionary House and visited the botanical garden. Once we saw the beach we knew where we were headed for the day. We went back to the ship- had lunch and gathered our beach towels and suits. We had a wonderful time catching waves and watching the beautiful scenery from the beach.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<div id=\"attachment_399\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/IMG_6110.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-399\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-399\" title=\"IMG_6110\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/IMG_6110-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/IMG_6110-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/IMG_6110-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/IMG_6110.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-399\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Overlooking the beach<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_400\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/P2120264.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-400\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-400\" title=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/P2120264-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/P2120264-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/P2120264.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Clear, beautiful and a great day!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,6,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cruise-reviews","category-new-zealand-and-australia-on-crystal-serenity","category-travel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=389"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":600,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/389\/revisions\/600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beckerleytravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
