Yesterday I had a pleasant walk up to the Huka Falls, looking at the water flowing boisterously through the narrow channel to the falls I thought it would be the ideal place to go tubing but in retrospect it would have been an admin nightmare for my family if things went badly wrong so I will leave that to some other intrepid adventurer. After lunch I spent an hour or so relaxing in the naturally heated pool on the campsite watching England v NZ cricket on the big screen, a great way to finish off a walk.
Last night the temperature in my little van dropped dramatically and I awoke in the early hours freezing, that's it I am going back towards the coast away from the hills, I may even indulge myself with a hotel.
Later.......
well I got halfway to my next stop in New Plymouth when the rain started and the forecast for the rest of the week doesn't look brilliant, what a good decision it was to go for the hotel. The local dining options are not very inspiring, McDonald's, Kentucky, Thai or sushi so it was home cooked souvlaki, salad and hummus tonight.
