Too begin with, Driving on the Left - What could possibly go wrong?

We headed south towards the Coromandel pennisula, tentatively at first, since there was a tendency to switch on the wipers when trying to signal and vice versa.



The trip along the pennisula is a challenging drive, oh it is paved but it is active driving, with hairpin curves, one lane bridge crossings, mountain switchbacks, and distracting scenery at every turn.




This part of New Zealand is on the top ten list of places to visit. We had mixed weather, variable, let's say, with drizzle, rain, sun, overcast, always windy... but still, on the whole, nice.
