Beachbum Bus - Sunday 28th February

We got picked up at 10 outside our house by Dan the beachbum bus driver. The original bus was having problems so we had to jump on one of the normal Stray buses. Dan brought along his staffy dog Jade for the ride. First stop was down to Oneroa bay to watch the Tsunami which we were warned about. At first we stood at the bottom of the hill then realised it may be best to head to the top of the hill for safety and a better view obviously. The Tsunami never happened, it just felt like a constant calm before the storm really. After a good hour and a half we jump back on the bus and towards the supermarket to stock up on food and booze for a BBQ later in the day. After the supermarket we went walking in the Waiheke Rainforest reserve for half an hour. The trees were amazing but i was getting quite tipsy at this point so I didn't really care for the scenary, I just wanted to not fall off the track!
Dan then took us to a winery at the top of the hill called 'Wild On Waiheke'. The wine was gorgeous there so I bought myself a nice bottle of rose to get hammered on later!
We left the winery feeling light headed and quite drunk and opened another bottle of beer and set off for Man 'O War bar. The water was really shallow and lovely... Or so i was told! Me, James, Danny and Matty went for some more wine tasting. The portions were massive and we made our way through about 8 or 9 more wines before leaving stubbling all over the place!
After grabbing some grub from the BBQ we went to this small pier thing down the road to jump off into the sea which properly sorted my head out!
We got back to the township and went to an open mic bar for some more booze! Andy got shit faced after drinking his bottle of wine on the bus then getting on it again in the bar and chatting up all the local girls!
We got back to the house pretty drunk and left to walk down the beach and chill out for a couple of hours!
