AMERICARNA






Feb 25th, 2010

AmeriCARna happens once a year in New Zealand. And we just so happened to be in Opunake the day over 700 American made cars roared into the sleepy little surf town and overtook the beach cove, their first stop on the North Island. As we drove into town that morning, we noticed the red, white, and blue balloons and streamers hanging from the lamp posts, the American flags lining the Surf Highway 45, and the people setting up along the road in front of their houses and figured something was up. After talking to some of the spectators, we were told that alot of these cars are shipped over from the U.S for the event. They drive all over the country, and they are heading south (just like us!). Anyway, we had to go check it out. Here are some of the pictures from the event...just another American cultural export!
