Kia Ora Everyone, Sorry there's been no entries for a little while but I've not had access to the internet or been able to upload my photographs recently.... Thanks though to everyone who keeps in email contact as I'm getting very good at using all the opportunistic occasions I can to briefly access my mail....
Okay, a whistle stop tour through the highlights of the last few weeks.....
As my time at Waihoihoi Lodge drew to an end, I tried to capture the more challenging moments of this wwoofing experience in word & photo... the compulsory sessions in the heated, outdoor spa, usually at the end of an exhausting day of cleaning or packing with the obligatory glass of some noxious substance or other was one challenge I particularly struggled with - as evidenced in photo 1.... those jets would insist on massaging the aches & pains from my shoulders as I gazed across at the bay..
One of the things about being a wwoofer is that one has to learn very quickly to 'go with the flow' & if one's Host suddenly decides that it's time for eveyone.... including Hildegard, the dog, to go down to the beach for a gorgeous walk along a windswept, sun-filled empty beach... quite honestly, what's a wwoofer to do... except to jump into the jeep & go! Here's me at Wapui Cove... on compulsory beach walk duties!This is another photo of the amazing Waka (Maori
Canoe)
& Wave sculpture at Whangarei.... 
And lastly, a photo of the view from the Hot Tub across Bream Head, some folks say that Bream Head looks like a sleeping dragon... what do you think?
