Sailing

After a few days with bad weather, the sun came back in New Zealand's sky. This is all we wanted, because today was sailing day!
In the morning we left in a group of twelve people to go around many islands in Bay of Islands (it's possible to understand why they call it 'Bay of Islands' when you're sailing). I could see some incredible beaches, with extremely calm green water. It was finally a relaxing day just to enjoy the view and rest! In one of the Islands we got off the boat. I swam to the cost, in a very cold water (and it made me pretty tired). In the Island we climbed a mountain where we could see all the Islands around. Awesome!
The beaches are a little bit different compared to Brazilian beaches, because the water is shallow for 5 or 10 meters and then it's like a hole, turning to deep suddenly.
I really don't have the words to describe it, but it was one of the best things I did here (or in my whole life).
In the best kiwi accent, all I will remember to describe is - AWESOME!
