Just magical!

Yes, just magical!

The kauri forest in the night felt enchanted: all those spirits of hundreds of years peeked at us from the heights of the kauri trees, the glowworm arrays echoed by the stars which peeked through the forest canopy like glowworm displays in the sky! To hear the Kiwis calling, then to see not just one, but a second full grown one too – awesome. The morepork called farewells; my only worry was the close encounter with a possum on the track, after we had just been watching the young Kiwi foraging – I do hope he was big enough to hide alright!

Anyway, wonderful experience in the charming backpackers!

Thanks!

Another wonderful NZ surprize!

We loved the food, scenery, walk out back and the cozy place to rest our heads.

Thank you.

p.s. Thanks for the business card – we will definately order some wasabi when we get home.

Many thanks for a wonderful stay – we looked forward to knowing supper would be served – and loved all the squash, potatoes and yams, meat and marvellous dessert.

A beautiful sunrise and we are off.

Thanks too for the great coffee and fresh bread.
