However, once we got to Raglan boy where we in for a treat. It is the perfect surf town, and the lodge we stayed at was tucked away in the forest with this lovely view of the water. (And it had such comfy beds!)<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View from the Raglan Hostel\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/4449017641\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4030\/4449017641_1eff7a11c3.jpg\" alt=\"View from the Raglan Hostel\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When we finally got down to the beach I thought I would do some body boarding, since I have done both surfing and body boarding before. See, I find surfing extremely difficult and frustrating while body boarding I am actually pretty decent at lol, maybe I should become a professional body boarding , if there is even such a thing.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Boggie Boarding\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/4449019579\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2751\/4449019579_25fdc9a56d.jpg\" alt=\"Boggie Boarding\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Me and Saskia\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/4449019187\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4010\/4449019187_1a953afc27.jpg\" alt=\"Me and Saskia\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Me and my German friend Saskia!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So in conclusion, Raglan really lived up to it&#8217;s name and as it&#8217;s reputed to have one of the best best left breaks in the world!
