Good morning from a grey and miserable Hastings day. We have snow on the ranges and the day is expected to be wet and cold.
So it is appropriate that the Travel Theme this week hosted by Ailsa over at Where’s my backpack? is for our grey photos. So today I am travelling around the North Island. First stop is the mud pools at Wai-O-Tapu in Rotorua. I think I spent hours there just trying to catch a good splash.
Then we are off to Taloga Bay which has New Zealand’s longest wharf. The two children running are mine. It was very long and you can find out more about this

Then we head up to Auckland where I found this grey New Zealand Navy frigate at the Devonport Navy Base.
Finally we head home for some grey stones down at then Ngaruroro River.

Thanks so much. If you do come to New Zealand you must come to Hastings so I can show you around.

Summer is coming to it’s final weeks, so you must be having thoughts of spring just about now! Funny being on opposite sides of the world.

I know. It is still cold. Winter has decided it wants to hang around a bit longer. It so sucks. I am ready for some warmer weather
