Mt. Ngarhoe...these pics were taken on the drive home, it was incredibly beautiful and I would have taken more but my battery was running low.

Home: pick up the kids, try and get organised and get to my place to find the gas heater broken..(bad news its FREEZING) that it had been flooding in Wellie while we were gone (yes again...great weekend to leave), and that a train had derailed due to the heavy rain, (yes one of the ones we regularly take...)
