Day 6 was a lot like riding along Highway 1 in California.  We rode along the coastline all day long.  Beautiful views out to our right the whole day.  Except in this case it was NZ State Highway 6.  Not a ton of shoulder, but not a ton of traffic, either.  

Lush, dense forests of ferns and palms and all kinds of trees.
