Waiomu Coast to Kauri Walk
Warwick and I did this walk on ANZAC Day. We often recommend it to your guests, but hadn't done it ourselves in years. It was fantastic - followed the river, so no big hills to climb, easily completed it within about an hour, Beautiful scenery with a very impressive "destination"

Antipasto Platter shown in the blog was a "small" one - here is an example of the l"large" size.
Our Native Bush
The colours remain vibrant even in the summer

Extended families enjoy sharing a meal under the trees.
Another great start to the summer
The weather has been great and the gardens and bush are better than ever
Driveway Upgrade
The trucks, diggers and rollers have just left and our drive is now smooth and wide. We miss the vegetation - but know our guests will appreciate the updated look.
