    So, what's the gift for a 90th anniversary?: by taylortreks, Views[163]
         		 It's a peaceful jungle.: by taylortreks, Views[152]
         		 Yet it has a nice little church.: by taylortreks, Views[140]
         		 It's quaint inside.: by taylortreks, Views[131]
         		 The koru, which is often used in Māori art as a symbol of creation, is based on the shape of an unfurling fern frond. Its circular shape conveys the idea of perpetual movement, and its inward coil suggests a return to the point of origin. The koru therefore symbolises the way in which life both changes and stays the same.: by taylortreks, Views[181]
     
    Wait! It's NOT Mt Taranaki! It's Mt Ruapehu!: by taylortreks, Views[159]
         		 You really have to want to go to Whangamomona.: by taylortreks, Views[135]
         		 But we arrived far too early for lunch.: by taylortreks, Views[140]
         		 Ah, it looks like the mists of time!: by taylortreks, Views[140]
         		 This is what all the NZ rain creates.. a rainforest!: by taylortreks, Views[145]
     
    These ferns look almost prehistoric, too.: by taylortreks, Views[135]
         		 And then it becomes a gravel road. Oh. boy.: by taylortreks, Views[147]
         		 But it's a gorgeous gravel road!: by taylortreks, Views[148]
         		 This place looks prehistoric, it wouldn't surprise us to see dinosaurs at any moment!: by taylortreks, Views[165]
         		 No turning back now!: by taylortreks, Views[154]
     
    Oh, surprise, it's another twisty NZ road!: by taylortreks, Views[90]
         		 The original lens.: by taylortreks, Views[162]
         		 From the top of the replica lighthouse, you can see the original lighthouse down the coast.: by taylortreks, Views[175]
         		 And a view of Mt Taranaki. It's EVERYWHERE!: by taylortreks, Views[160]

         		 But it's always a pretty view when we get there...: by taylortreks, Views[152]
         		 We can find all these lighthouses, but you can't go inside. None of them are manned anymore.: by taylortreks, Views[145]
         		 So that's how they named New Zealand!: by taylortreks, Views[155]
         		 This is the replica lighthouse, built and maintained by the Cape Egmont Boat Club. When the original lighthouse was automated, they wanted to save the original lens, so they built a replica lighthouse and mounted the lens in here. They also turned it into a museum.: by taylortreks, Views[450]
     
    This road is known as the Surf Highway. Aptly named, don't you think?: by taylortreks, Views[196]
         		 Splash!: by taylortreks, Views[157]
         		 Yep, we missed this sign the first time we went by...: by taylortreks, Views[169]
         		 We finally found the original lighthouse.: by taylortreks, Views[134]
         		 Everywhere we go there are stairs!: by taylortreks, Views[143]

         		 This is how Anna chooses which path to take - the shortest one!!: by taylortreks, Views[176]
         		 Unfortunately, even if it's a short distance, it's usually steps or hills that must be traversed in order to get to the pretty views.: by taylortreks, Views[147]
         		 But well worth the effort!: by taylortreks, Views[183]

         		 Part of the hard-working machinery.: by taylortreks, Views[143]
     
    The Stratford Glockenspiel.: by taylortreks, Views[194]
         		 On the tree-covered road, it's impossible to tell you're heading straight for a mountain!: by taylortreks, Views[181]
         		 It's cold up here!!: by taylortreks, Views[176]

         		 This side, too.: by taylortreks, Views[144]
         		 Looks the same from the Forgotten World Highway. (But that's a different blog post!): by taylortreks, Views[154]
         		 Yeah, we're walking all the way down there to the lighthouse. We won't talk about how long it took Anna to walk back up...: by taylortreks, Views[177]
         		 Alas, no whales came scratching today. Goodness knows we looked hard!: by taylortreks, Views[171]
