Natures Cottage

Ahhh isn’t this a nice photo? It’s taken on a windless night in Whangamata.

This is a place called Piha on the wild west coast of New Zealand. It’s about 45mins from Auckland City. I grew up in Piha so I’ll probably be posting a lot of pics.
I almost died in Piha surfing. Theres a lot of jagged Rocks and caves all around the west coast. I was surfing with one of my friends just around the bay from this photo. I caught a big wave and ended going over the falls. I got smashed by a few waves and when I came up I was right against the rocks. A cave was about 5 meters away from me and the current was sucking me in there. That was about the freakiest time of my life because I couldn’t see what was in the cave. So I ended up getting sucked in the cave which was like a washing machine. Very freaky. I got stuck in there for over an hour until I managed to climb up onto a ledge then climb out of the cave. My board was smashed already. I climbed out of the cave and sat on a perch. I decided I wasn’t going anywhere until a helicopter came to save me haha. while I was in the cave my friend had gone to get the life guards so they ended up coming round in their IRB (rescue boat) to save me. I tell you that was the best sight of my life. I thanked the lord at that point because I thought that was it for me .

These pictures are taken of Lion Rock. From some angles it really looks like a lion sitting down but you can’t really tell from these pics.

This sweet little pic of the day was taken In northland. I won’t just keep posting waves I promise. But doesn’t it just look beautiful!
