hovmoller Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Haha yeah and you keep on picking bits up and then you realise that you can't carry it.. then you make a pile to come back and get.. and then in the end you spend ages looking for your piles because they are so damn well camouflaged on a beach with heaps and heaps of wood!

I did that when I collected wood from Napier :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneeyedfrog Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Yep LOL. We were building towers near our piles so that we could find them. Then you realise just how far down the beach you have walked- some of those bits are pretty heavy by the time you get back to your car. I had to buy everyone an icecream for all their efforts!

Fishie123 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Where about in Port Waikato could I find nice driftwood? Could someone link me the place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordayzbro Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Where about in Port Waikato could I find nice driftwood? Could someone link me the place? Along the main beach or in the estuary. After the storm theres bound to be driftwood on almost all Auckland beaches.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I would tent to agree, any west coast beach after a storm should have good amounts of wood... Just get out there and look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
