We had planned on doing the Tongariro crossing today but the weather was rubbish so we decided to make our way back up to Jax's via Taupo for a picnic and Hamilton gardens. Hells pizza and packing!

An early start as we flew up to the north island and spent some time with our friend Jacqui. Lots of catching up and a yummy BBQ! (she even found some shrimps especially for you Sarah and Bobby!)
