For the Al Gore Rythym! New Zealand's two main islands are so different, as beautiful as each other, just in very different ways. North is great beaches, stunning farmland, rolling green hills and incredible ocean and coastal views. South is pure Grandeur of majestic mountains, lakes and also the above. Well done again, Beer O'Clock!

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Yeah since we come from a mountainous area in Canada we are really impressed with the beaches up here so far! Appreciate the comment, Paul, beer O’Clock indeed!! 🍻🍻

North Island is more civilized, South Island for the extreme nature!!

If there's one thing Kiwis love, it's seeing other people fall in love with our home.

@donovankelly12 Год назад

I think you're right! A lot more Kiwis watching my videos than I expected!

@Donovan Kelly we are a humble people. We always want to please and make sure others like us lol

Your te reo Māori pronunciation is great. I rode my mountain bike the full distance of the Ninety Mile Beach there and back again this last summer; all 176km. It's a long beach to ride. They used to herd cattle up the beach and it took them three days. By road three days herding equated to ninety miles - hence the name. But on the beach, they didn't take into account the high tides slowing down the cattle to around 20 miles a day making the beach only 60 odd miles. BTW. The Māori name for the beach is Te One Roa a Tohe - the long beach of Tohe; Tohe being a local Māori chief of the area.

Thank you, Eddie! I've definitely been mispronouncing a lot of words so far so I am making a concerned effort to get the language right. That's really cool, I can't imagine biking that! Thanks for letting me know my friend, cheers! 🍻

Kewl 🎉❤🎉place Cape Reinga. Very spiritual indeed. Kia Ora

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Absolutely! Truly beautiful.

Pukenui is a lovely spot, lived there for a year. Living in Sydney now.

@donovankelly12 Год назад

It looked really nice for the limited time we did have there!! I’m sure Sydney is quite the contrast haha

@HotForgeChaos 6 месяцев назад

I live between Kaitaia and Doubtless Bay, and I do work in Pukenui from time to time. I always make a point to stop at the 4 Square for a long af sausage roll, and a pie from the vendor just on the north end of Pukenui

@baileyscoolgamingvideos6039 Год назад

You should go to tauranga it’s great

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Yeah we just spent a night there, climbed up Mt. Maunganui, what a work out! 😅

The Coromandel Peninsula is a great place to visit from Auckland. Lots of camping, beaches, bush walks, etc. very chill. It used to be a -2 hour drive from Auckland, but now that the Thames road has washed away from the flood- it takes about 3 hours now. Go through Paeroa and Waihi to get to Pauanui, Whangamata and Whitianga- I stay at my parents beach house. I love it there. (I saw a UFO there once, too. And I'm a skeptical of all that) I can recommend a great hotel to stay at in Pauanui, my dad works there part-time now that he's retired. Lots of international guests staying there, very relaxed- not overly flash/fancy, just the right amount. VERY welcoming. Biggest tourist trap is Rotorua (quite nice) Also, please ignore our theme park Rainbow's End, it's embarrassingly humble compared to other country's.

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Yes absolutely, Coromandel Peninsula was really great! We camped beside Coromandel for 2 nights and spent a night in Whitianga after exploring Hahei. Will need to go back to fully see Cathedral Cove! Haha okay will do, we spent a few rainy nights at Rotorua, I could see that. Just got to the South Island so I will likely have a North Island video coming soon!

I been there once to watch the full solar eclipse back in 2012.....i can't tell u what that experience was like on a cracker day, sitting underneath the lighthouse

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Ah I can’t even imagine, that would be so amazing. Jealous!!

@johnallsopp6324 Год назад

Nice! But no beer?

@donovankelly12 Год назад

I know right? This is one of the few trips we’ve been on where I haven’t had a beer lol but it was a Sunday night/ Monday so not much was open unfortunately

@phillipegen8471 Год назад

Love seeing your adventures around our beautiful country guys. Glad you guys are willing to travel cos nz has cool things to see and do but man u gotta drive 😂.keep em coming team 🍻

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Thanks Phillip! Really appreciate it man, got a lot of driving coming up in the next 60 days

@phillipegen8471 Год назад

@Donovan Kelly oh I can imagine. Waitomo is a great place to visit. Blackwater tubing and seeing the glow worm caves. Oh mate nz is just epic for natural beauty everywhere. So diverse every where u travel too. We are really lucky to have a country like this

@deanreeve5257 Год назад

While you're up there, go to the lookout at Ahipara. It's down the bottom end of 90 mile beach.

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Ahh we have already left but hopefully your suggestion helps another traveller looking to experience this place! Thank you for the comment 😃🙏

@benjigirl1971 Год назад

@@donovankelly12 yes it’s extremely important for the Maori. (Said “Mow-ree”. The “ow” bit is said like the Ow you say if you hurt yourself.) Can’t wait til you go to Coromandel and the South Island!

Just a tip - sea water can rust a vehicles undercarriage so taking your car for a clean will lessen damage

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Thank you for that tip!

@Andy_M986 Год назад

Opus has some of the best Fish n Chips bro,not sure about the Beers,possibly a few boutique breweries up past Auckland.

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Awesome, thanks! Haha so many places have great fish and chips so if there are places that stand out I appreciate you letting me know.

@Andy_M986 Год назад

@donovankelly12 All good bro, have a sweet weekend.

@TheShadsWolf Год назад

I wanna go there but its a long drive and I'd need to get my license first

@donovankelly12 Год назад

It is a bit of a drive but it was so worth it for us, really enjoyed our time there!!

@Webpoodle Год назад

Really enjoying your videos and your production values Donovan. But seriously! Why are you wasting your time in the North when you could be visiting the real New Zealand down here in the South Island. Better beer too 🙂

@donovankelly12 Год назад

Hey thanks! Haha our thought process is that we are likely going to stay on the South Island and find a place to live permanently(till our work visa runs out) so try and see as much of the country as possible! Not gonna lie, definitely looking forward to the beer, although some of the fresh hops beers up here lately have been fantastic. We are on our way down, will be there in a few days! Cheers 🍻

@Webpoodle Год назад

Good plan man. Best to get here before the SI looks like Ontario in December.
