Hannah is 7!    The party was at The Spencer (that's the taller building)  and Gran & Grandad got an invite too.

Deb made the cake

Hannah shared it with Emma because it was her birthday too
John didn't like the jelly lollies Sorry about the quality, I'm having problems with the camera again.  In addition to that, there was a little operator error I think.

It's very nearly the end of this trip.  Our journey back to base took us through Te Aroha.  It's a great town and we think that the architecture rivals that of Napier, and it's much easier to park !

Close by is Waiorongomai (below), the site of an old gold town.  Such a shame so much has gone now.  That tramway would have been a brilliant tourist attraction.
Te Aroha

Love this gable end, and the finial of course

November 2010 until April 2011

We covered 8850 kilometres.

 It's truly autumn now, lots of fungi and litchen
