Make Your Next Vacation Your Best Vacation!®

We had a a busy day today.  We started our morning at Whakarewarewa Forest. While many people head straight for the high-altitude Treewalk, we stuck to the forest floor—and I’m glad we did.

There’s something incredibly grounding about walking among trees that have been standing since 1901. When you’re at the base of a Californian Redwood, you realize just how small you are.  Redwoods are not native to New Zealand but thanks to the soil & rain they grow faster here.
