A Sprint Finish!
And so the end of my travels was fast approaching and I arrived in New Plymouth from Whakapapa in poor weather and grey skies. I decided to come here as I thought there was probably more to the place than I thought last time. I was wrong but it wasn't too bad. Due to the weather I just visited the art gallery and the museum.
The art gallery was very good with excellent exhibits from Asia and the museum wiled away a couple of hours but I'd seen it all before ...

However, nothing could prepare me for the stench of sulpher and other minerals as we pulled upto ...
Paint it red, eh?
Up to Whangarei for game #2 of our set of 3 games - Canada vs. Tonga. I had convinced Jennie to come to this one. We had general admission tickets, so it was going to be casual, fun, and crazy, and boy, was it ever! The entire Northland region had chosen Canada, Tonga, and Japan as their adoptive teams for the World Cup, and since we all have red and white flags, the theme was "Paint it Red". Even if you're a die-hard ...
