How cracy what electronic chips showing when frames per secound are mutch to fast..... then freezing a propeller picture in till prozessor able to counting 😁
See likely driving trough Pokeno bakon centre and Mercer aftef 30 years its different but sill nice exiting! Old pup its gone about highway but 🙏 mercer stil its same?
Hi, the old Mercer pub building is still there I think, but it’s not a pub. It could be a cheese shop now, or maybe a museum. The rest of Mercer looks the same - but I drive past it a lot and don’t notice the small changes. Down the road in Te Kauwhata it’s very different now. There are lots of new houses being built. Pokeno has changed so much it’s crazy- they even make Whisky there now: pokenowhisky.com
Hi again, been loving the videos, this one is amazing with its dirt roads and back country, it's interesting that it looks like most of the fruit and vegetable farms seem to be up in the north island or it at least seems that way from watching the videos, anyway, take care and keep well, looking forward to watching more, Happy Aussie.
Hi Jutta, there are a lot of fruit and vege farms up north, especially the upper half of the North Island, but there are also loads of apples and other orchards around the Nelson region and also further south in Central Otago, Roxborough,, Clyde etc. which grow a lot of stone fruits like peaches. Always good to hear from you, hope everything is going well. Cheers
Between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm Auckland traffic is ok most of the time - in rush hour it’s terrible. Morning Rush hour starts around 6:00 am, or earlier. So rush hour is about 4 hours long now
Thanks driving in coromandle.... Whangamata i never was... Want enjoy hot water pools again 🙏 NZ vorever! Taranaki or waikato ohhh all else its unbelievable like all Aotearoa. So great people must be in a land of great difference and nature. Please showing after birds.... land of birds.
Hi, the change of government at the previous election has led to a lot of chatter about upgrading highways. There is a plan to extend the Waikato Expressway and also create a four lane expressway/motorway east to Tauranga. www.stuff.co.nz/motoring/350204163/cheat-sheet-governments-15-roads-national-significance#:~:text=The%20Government%20has%20brought%20back,laned%2C%20grade%2Dseparated%20highways.
Thanks for nice drive Must be early in morning sun rising up? Was once driving out of tuakau at afternoon where sun was very deep. 🙏🙏🙏 getting to NZ Aotearoa again!
Hi hope you had a great Easter, been loving the drives, as well as the new ones I have been watching the old drives through the stations, still find the scenery in the back country amazing, looking forward to seeing more, Happy Aussie.
Cheers Jutta, Easter was good thanks. I hope all is well with you. Glad you’re enjoying the videos. For a small country there’s still a lot to see in NZ. Thank you for your encouraging comments- it’s always good to hear from you.
That was very very nice scenic drive. I've been to NZ, my cousin drove me from Auckland to Rotorua. It was very pleasant trip. I like NZ's slow moving life unlike over here in North America is go go go. Thanks.
Your early video with bird singing was a good idea... why not sometimes integrate ome sound from NZ into videos. Not must be only bird singing...? Eveey outside never heard NZ sounds like bird again or before. This bird voices was different to european birds mutch at many places.
Nice morning sun. .. I was once driving in afternoon sun from pokeno to Tuakahu and without sunglasses 😂.. There i having my first Tiptop ice cream 😜❤️❤️👍 Mint chocolat..... Still gives mint dark crisoy chocolate ice cream? Sadly thats tiptop its nestle -swiss intercontinental massive business? Hope quality its still good. Marketing about no palm oil was before anyway no question! NZ having enough dairy? Fruit sugar milk or cream its enough normally.... Since when u driving and filming?
Really kiwi video 😍 Slow video on right line. .. I love kiwi driving Taking your line and taking over where its best. Kiwi driving good only same creepy if drunken like all in world... How bigger are auckland got last decade?
Yes - not a lot of people living up there, but some of the best beaches in New Zealand are accessed from that road. Quite often you can have a whole beach to yourself
Here’s a link to the Department of Conservation giving details on the walking tack in the area www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/places-to-go/northland/places/te-paki-recreation-reserve/things-to-do/tracks/te-paki-coastal-track/
love Northland. Gravel road, 100kmh limit. Believe it or not this used to be the main road to Whangarei from Auckland- via Mountain Road from Kaiwaka- before they built the Pilbrows Hill Deviation in the 1930s.
U deliver sometimes to coromandle or driving to Peroa and further? East coast would of course be nice. Thanks for u driving sightseeing.... some friends driving in taranaki etc. U knowing?
Brynderwyns are closed now - much worse now! It took seven hours driving from Auckland a few days ago. Road closures and accidents created a lot of havoc. Need a helicopter to get around!@@kentyfriedicecr
I'll post the road closure videos now. Camera overheated a bit, so not all of it was captured, weather was terrible. A truck rolled on one of the detour routes, which closed the road - had to find another way to Whangarei. Ended up taking a wrong turn which added at least an hour onto the journey. @@kentyfriedicecr
@@slowtv-drive but bro, the majority of the gridlock would be within the auckland limits eh. ie once past the hibiscuscoast it should be fine. this brnderwin closure is temporary but aucklands troubles are at its worst right now in march.
Awesome video of Auckland highway driving! It would be nice to also see sped up versions of highway driving videos like these, with possibly some background music included as well.
Ohh after decades all trough its a highway with four lanes and see nothing about pokeno, mercer and another towns🙈. Its okay but sadly? Pokeno still ham town?
Thanks for great pictures from kiwis in heart wher suffering outside. Aotearoa i know and loving vorever. 🙏 times where able to be again. NZ its country of soul and heart... even not having an kiwi passport.
