Our host, Greg Ross grills delicious lamb cutlets.

We are directly northwest of Auckland, which is on the east coast of the North Island. Note that the name Haumoana means sea-breeze. They aren't kidding with that name. The Kaipara Peninsula is on the Tasman Sea which is a notoriously windy sea. The winds were nothing short of gale force the day were at Haumoana Farm. Care needed to be taken to remain standing when not sheltered by a building.
