We took no more pictures on the Tongariro crossing hike. We were too tired to pull the camera out of our pockets. We staggered down for 4 hours and collapsed at the parking lot where bus took us back to the hotel. There we took a shower, and sat in the hot tub, and went to dinner where I absolutely fell asleep eating dinner. Next day we got to go for the drive over the mountains to Napier. This was a pretty valley on the way. We counted 15 cars on this 5 hour drive. As I may have said, all the people in this country are in Auckland or on the Tongariro Crossing trail. The rest of the country looks like this.... just eye candy at each turn.I would like to acknowledge the 2 people I know of so far who have found the blog, and who are not (yet) friends or family. I do appreciate your comments, and I'm glad you are following our adventures. I think you live in NZ, and we will make contact with you when we get in your neighborhood. Thanks again for your comments.
Marilyn, let Barb know that the Maori use Lemmie sticks in their dances. If she writes me email I'll send her a picture.

This hike looks amazing! We obviously need to make a return trip to NZ so that we can do this.
