HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Hastings-Taupo-Tauranga - a collection of Aotearoa's most popular holiday spots, and indeed it was! Travelling through the country, you can't help but be wowed by the lush, natural bush all around. Such impressive surroundings and just gorgeous! Hastings - the fruit bowl of NZ - apple orchards, peaches, apricots and more! Also, two aunties to spend quality time with as we appreciate how short and special that time is.
Taupo is at the centre of the North Island and is the skiiing area in the winter. In the summer though, it is all lake, jandals (or bare feet!), and sunburn!
A visit to the always amazing Huka falls was our tourist effort, and we did see a couple of kayakers go over the falls which was pretty amazing! Silly buggers!
Stayed overnight then off to Tauranga.
Surprisingly, we came across a very cool roadside cafe (so surprising!)...more great coffee and $5 worth of cherries that was a reminder of appropriate quantities being...well...appropriate!
