We've had quite a frustrating time trying to set up a broadband connection over the last couple of days - only to be told that there were no more connections available in the area! Luckily the nice people we are renting from are willing to upgrade their connection to wireless which will give us connectivity from the guest house. That was a huge relief, we would have had to move otherwise and there aren't many furnished rental properties available.
We then found out that our mobile phones are locked to the UK network so cannot be used here! All we wanted was a connection of some sort to the real world! In the end we managed to buy an NZ phone for $59 (bargain!) which at least gives us a contact number here.
After all that, we decided to have the afternoon off from trying to get things set up and went for a drive up to Whangaroa harbour. The weather is SO hot at the moment we thought being by the water might be cooler - it wasn't but the views more than made up for it :)
