Hamilton to Hastings

So..-2 during the night and a tropical 3 degrees this morning...did I mention we don't do central heat?? My tropical island holiday continues...It is sunny during the day though so no sleeves for me! Catching up with whanau and old friends is the bestest! You pick up conversations and cups of tea like you just mised seeing them in the weekend, rather than the 4 long years it has been. in Auckland I stayed with a friend I have known since high school...yesterday caught up with my uncle in Hamilton...last night stayed with a friend I've known since I was 18...connections, people, it's all about connections.

Travelling south.  The pic above is Lake Taupo from the bus window.  It didn't even have to try hard to look stunning!

Off to Hastings to spend some days with Mum - can't wait! E Noho ra koutou!
