Well, I'm 'shattered' all over again. I think being so relaxed has reduced my stamina or something. After breakfast we went out to Huka Falls and Waikato River, and went for a walk for an hour or so. Got some … Read more …
We woke up Saturday at 5am. Finally got out of bed around 5:30 and got ourselves ready and the car packed. We left at 6:25am in order to beat all the traffic. It was the beginning of the ANZAC Day … Read more …
