Finally, we're set to go... to Napier

Phase 2: Post Boxing Day
Encompassing the drive from Wellington to Napier and our stay in Hawke's Bay

---

We Drive Towards Napier
Over mountains
By the sea


We see wee towns dotted along the motorway


We see some moo cows on a lovely hill (x's 356)


We see some sweeping landscapes



We see hills dressed in pine, waiting to be sheared


We see places that look like Hobbiton


We see some very pretty long white clouds


Once in the Hawke's Bay region
We drive to Te Mata Peak, this is only part of the way


We're at the peak
This is part of what we see, notice the same wee road and hill as above


I like this ridge
You can see out to the Pacific


Our Blue Holden
My hair is like that because of the wind... by the by


I said I liked this...
Vertical


Black Barn Vineyard
Quite nice, they do not export


Proof. I am not just putting the good photos up here


The typical day in the Hawke's Bay


You can see all in reflection

Te Mata Peak is just above the boardwalk
