Winter day around Auckland
Added: 2015-08-03 by another contributor
I had fine weather for my first day. We took a ferry to Devonport, climbed their "mountain", and enjoyed spectacular views. After which we plopped down in a wonderful cafe for vegetable tart with chutney, delicious seafood chowder, and and a most surprising, but satisfying mixed up salad.

Western Springs

So much fowl! In a wonderful lake setting with walkways and little bridges. The birds just continue on the business of foraging. Unless a human offers free and easy handouts, them you hear quite a ruckus. Great Ingress tramping ground.

Rotorua + August 11 Polynesian Spa
Priority: Can't live without it
Added: 2015-08-12 by another contributor
The town takes advantage of the natural hot mineral springs. They soak in it, keep warm with it, and power their electronics from it. This particular spa claims to be in the top ten. I do believe NM Pagosa Springs can hold its own. Aaah, excuse me while I unwind.

Rainbow at the end of the day
Priority: Like it a lot
Added: 2015-08-06 by another contributor
My day at the museum began sunny, but as I trekked back to home base I encountered "rain". More like a heavy mist. I enjoyed the rainbow resulting, even as I ducked for shelter. I learned the hard way.. Don't leave home without your umbrella!

Presvytera Katerina

Reconnecting with Presvytera K. was the sweetest reason for choosing New Zealand. For goodness sake it's winter here! We had a delightful lunch on the pier. Calamari, kumara fries, and polenta fries. Kumara is a variety of the sweet potato. The next day I learned how New Zealand considers it a native plant. It's unknown whether the Polynesians gave it to South America or vice versa. I'm sure there is local pride involved.

Paul has flown on a few days before from LA. Thank goodness he already has the public transportation figured out. No car rental!

It trained but we persevered to the top. Found a tea room cafe for lease. I could go back into the restaurant business!
