Here are a few photos from a walk we took round trip from Paradise Bay on Urupukapuka Island for Alive and Trekking’s Which Way Challenge. I wish I could also share with you the smell of the air, the bush had a sweet smell, and the singing of the birds, and the warmth of the air with a cool breeze for balance…
Signs at the trailhead. 
Walking through the bush. 
The path opening out at the top of the hill. 
Path along the crest of the island.
Another “way”
This walk was a break in the midst of our favorite day of the trip: our sail aboard the good ship R. Tucker Thompson, a two masted schooner. If you ever get the chance this is great, relaxing way to spend a vacation day.
I’ve been going through the many photos I took on our recent vacation to New Zealand. My idea was to put together a travel-log or things to see in the Bay of Islands, but I can’t seem to get organized to cull photos and pull that together…at least not yet. For now I’m taking baby steps sharing a few here and there. Maybe there are just too many pictures…or maybe it is too soon to let them go, I can still smell the woods and feel the warmth when I look at them. It’s like hoarding a bit of summer to get me through to spring.
