We’re nearing the end of our mammoth trip, and enjoying being in one place, and a fabulous one at that.
A final piece of Maori culture is Waitangi – where the British and Maori signed a peace treaty in 1840 (and they still celebrate Waitangi Day each 6th February).
You start with an easy walk through the rainforest – almost deafened by the noise of the crickets.
And into the Maori Carved Meeting Hall.
Surprisingly came across some Jo lookalikes.
And at last found some waterfalls.
A late afternoon ferry trip across the bay to Russell and then back to our balcony for fish and chips (again).
That’s Russell from our balcony.
