Hunua Falls







This Saturday past, we had grand plans to hop in the car and drive a couple of hours to a lovely east coast beach. Ed and Clare could surf, and the rest of us planned on just enjoying the sunshine. Unfortunately, there was no sunshine, but instead black rainclouds looming overhead. That, combined with our very very late start, scrapped the beach plans.

Of course, we couldn't just stay in and do work! So instead Brodie, a Canadian student living in the same Uni accommodation as I am, suggested we go visit Hunua Falls, a great waterfall about 45 minutes drive from the city. We went, we hiked, we saw. And then we got lost on the way home. Still, though, a great way to avoid doing schoolwork!

Beautiful country! I love the trees. They look like green lace against the sky... looks like you have lost weight. Need a cook? Course I would probably get distracted by this beautiful county
