| The mighty Mt Ruapehu |
It was time to starting heading north on a slow journey, coddiwompling toward a date in August when we would leave NZ behind for a bit.
Stopping in Nelson for a couple of nights with family we headed to the Interisland Ferry for Wellington. This was possibly the calmest water we have ever crossed the Cook Strait in,
Staying with Clare's sister in Wellington so that we could spend some time with her Mum. James took himself off fishing and metal detecting, coming up with yet more fishing gear!
Next stop was a repeat sit in the back blocks of Levin. Here we were happy again to be looking after Maisy, Ron and Snookie the dogs.

| What a view! |
We also had the company of three cats - Garry, Pickles and Leo.

| One sure fired way of getting the clan together Dinner time!!!! |
It was a short few days but we enjoyed it just as much as last time ..... walking the dogs up in the forest over the back fence, and otherwise just relaxing with them.

At the end of the day, it was winner takes all at bedtime. You snooze, you lose your spot on the bed, humans included!
Arriving back in Whakatane to re-organise our gear according to the changing seasons and upcoming travels. Away went the hunting gear and out came the winter woollys!!
