KeriKeri, the nearest town, is a clean, prosperous little place. Unpretentious, neither super rich, super touristy, nor poor. Apparently becoming very popular with retirees. Including us – we reckon if we’d landed here instead of Tasmania 40 years ago we would probably have stayed.

It’s got a walk along the river up to Rainbow Falls, which took us 3 hours. Interesting forest sights.
