Leg one is of the journey has been very pleasant. Leaving a very windy Petone behind, the weather was much calmer on the Kapiti Coast. The roads were very quiet up the island, past man made ....
... and natural kiwi landmarks.
And on to our first over night stop beside the mighty Lake Taupo, with the promised 'stunning views' from the Tui Oaks Motel ...
... complete with our future flag waving in the breeze!
Lucky you. I love Ruapehu, Taupo and that part of the country. There is something magical and mysterious about it. It's interesting seeing the two flags side by side 'in situ' and it confirms to me tat the old one has to go. The union jack looks tired and irrelevant.
