How time flies, April since the Beach Hop and half the year is gone already. Its still been pretty much all go here, have managed to get the units looking good with the refurbishment complete, its great....

A very cool event was the annual Police surfing competition, held in Raglan this year, the mecca for surfing and true to west coast style it was big!..but great fun and it is not often you have Manu Bay to surf with only three others out. Everyone had a ball with enough size on the second day to have a jet ski out helping keep everyone safe and make life a bit easier in the paddling stakes.

here is just a small portion of the cars coming past for the cruise over to Onemana, there were hundreds of them. A few of the school kids got time off to come and watch the parade which was great for them with most of the noise being from the kids rather than the cars.
The weather was perfect for the whole week which made it another very sucessful event, next year is the 10th so should be a big one, if you want to see more checkout www.beachhop.co.nz
