-NEW ZEALAND’S NORTHLAND by Brian Holden+by Brian Holden
  
 New Zealand is demarcated into demographic regions and not provinces as is often believed. Northland is the northernmost region and is that long finger of land sticking out from the top. At the end of 1997 I did a cycle tour spending the entire time in Northland. It’s an area Oz bushwalkers rarely, if ever, go near. The region does, however get plenty of tourists to its famous Bay of Islands. New Zealand is demarcated into demographic regions and not provinces as is often believed.

 All good things must come to an end eventually and a deep sadness was felt by all who left that morning  on the 6am ferry connection to the mainland ferry. We experienced a red, red sunrise which silhouetted a myriad of small islands and a multitude of birds as we sailed towards Skye and as I stood on the windswept deck, I wondered how soon I could return to explore the two islands of  Lewis and Harris, which are more mountainous with a different beauty. All good things must come to an end eventually and a deep sadness was felt by all who left that morning  on the 6am ferry connection to the mainland ferry.

 Most bushwalkers carry a knife of some description, typically a Swiss Army knife ranging from a small basic knife up to one with 50 or more useful and essential implements such as a tooth pick and a thing to remove stones from horses' hooves: really necessary gear on a bushwalk.  Many people carry a knife in a little leather pouch on their belt.  These people are usually blokes and possibly are also Pitt Street farmers.   Most bushwalkers carry a knife of some description, typically a Swiss Army knife ranging from a small basic knife up to one with 50 or more useful and essential implements such as a tooth pick and a thing to remove stones from horses' hooves: really necessary gear on a bushwalk.  Many people carry a knife in a little leather pouch on their belt.  These people are usually blokes and possibly are also Pitt Street farmers.
