90-mile beach, with the sand dunes behind us, the tyre tracks are from the many cars which drive down the beach; off the coast is another "hole in the rock" (23/1/2000) Mark climbed to the top of one of the dunes, this is a photo taken downwards towards the creek, Laura is the dot in the middle of the photo on the edge of the sand dune (23/1/2000)
Mark (left) trying to toboggan down the sand dune on the body board (behind Mark), borrowed from the little boy (right). As you can see, the success is minimal (23/1/2000) The huge sand dunes near Cape Reinga (NZ), the "creek" in the foreground is the way to drive to 90-mile beach if you want to drive along the beach (23/1/2000)
