Annual fishing trip
Easy arrival and warm up. All tools for a good cooking event. Fantastic entertainment selection if required. Not sure why a vehicle parked in way up driveway. One recycling bin was hidden for some reason.

Warm in chilly Turangi
Really enjoyed our stay, roaring gas fore in the lounge and wee wall heaters in bedrooms kept everyone toasty on a cold spring weekend. Kids had a blast with all the toys and bunks in the kids room. Lots of extra bedding available. Much preferred location for ease of access to the mountains than Taupo. Thanks, we'll be back!
