Early start so I could have an early finish to fit a trail running in on the way to Whakatane. Jo and I managed 10km at Okataina just before the sun set. Stunning. Hot pools at Waitangi Soda Springs to finish before heading to Ohope to meet the boys. Perfect!
We woke up to a beautiful morning in Eskdale. Clear blue sky, warm sunshine though just a wee nip in the breeze to remind us that it’s really autumn. It’s a shame that the numpties in the car on the other side of the campsite started their engine and shone their headlights into our tent at some ungodly of the morning and woke us up!
Leisurely breakfast, pack up and the long drive home. Great weekend.
