Der Diktator-Farmer
... habe er von seinem Nachbarn, der ihn immer mit Massen davon versorgt. Also haben wir uns an den Honig gehalten. Er war gar nicht mehr zu beruhigen und am Ende haben wir ihm Geld unter seinen blöden Honig gelegt damit er sich neuen schenken lassen kann.
Leider waren wir bis zum Ende auf ihn angewiesen, da die Farm sozusagen am AdW lag und er uns zum Bus fahren musste.
Dann kam der große Augenblick und wir konnten nach Auckland fahren...

Tokomaru Bay- Tattapouri
... We used the internet to skype the family and check on the world & uploaded more of our life to the blog! (thought we are very far behind now). it took Marc 2hours to make his sundial & it had to go anti-clockwise due to the sun, & he measured every stone to the half hour, it kept him entertained.

Luke got a Mediterranean filo (filos are a standard offering) and Ell went for a vegetarian risotto cake (exactly what it sounds like, with spinach on top and a lovely relish). Although I am not a vegetarian, it is very easy and delicious to be one in NZ - I recommend it.

Grey days in Gisborne
... If you like your pools big fancy and cholorinated it probably isn't for you but if you like an authentic hot pool experience (ancient sea water that bubbles to the surface and is piped to the pools) that is cheap ($6 each for entry) I would make time to stop here on the way through. The pool complex is on DoC land and you get a 10min walk through native bush to get there which all adds to the experience.
From there its off to Napier!

Day 38 Boxing Day

On our drive back we passed what appears to be a wild turkey, ate(not the turkey) and went to sleep.
