The next stop was the Truman walk down to the beach. We enjoyed a few minutes here before we continued to the Puna Kaiki Pancake rocks and blow holes. We had the chance to sit down at one of the lookout points and enjoy our lunch.
Today so far a lot of walking; it was really refreshing and a good exercise.
Next we were off to Lake Mahinapua where we would spend the night and have a fancy dress up party in the evening in the famous Poo Pub. Now you might wonder where to get a cheap costume on short notice that does not involve any clothes. We stopped in Greymouth for some shopping and going on a hunt for our costumes. Some people really put a lot of effort and money into their costumes. I went for the cheap option and just bought some tape and aluminium foils and made a dress with that. There were some prices up for grabs for the most creative costume such as a Canyon Swing and vouchers for pictures from a bungee jump. Of course I would have loved to have one of them; however the winners well deserved them and respect to their creativeness.Our driver and the host cooked our dinner for that night, a massive steak and some veggies. Everyone was filled up and happy and claimed they haven’t had such a great meal in ages….(did I mention I miss the farm a little bit?)
Happy Travels!
