We are not leaving for Fiji today, and it looks like it will be a couple of
days before we get another opportunity to depart,
so we rented a minivan and drove to some
of the local sights.
We drove through Paihia into the Kerikeri region, and our first stop was the
Stone Store, New Zealand's oldest stone building, built in 1836.
The same site also has the Kerikeri Mission House, New
Zealand's oldest surviving wooden building (1882). Both
are located beside the Kerikeri River, a tidal river.
