Here comes the sun :)


Its still a bit chilly but the sun is gradually coming back and warming us up again. So this weekend we headed back to Tane's track just outside Upper Hutt and had our first picnic of the spring.


I am sure I have a photo of this waterfall from 9 years ago when we first did this walk. The girls were a lot shorter then.


This walk is just as beautiful as I remember it - only we completed it a lot quicker than previously. I think the girls legs are a lot longer this time!


Ted enjoyed it. It's one of the few walks that dogs are allowed on as there are no kiwis in this area. The notices about the use of 1080 in the area are rather worrying. This is a poison used to wipe out pests such as rats and possums. You just have to make sure that your dog don't eat any of the bait as it is fatal to dogs as well as pests.
