Te Araroa 1 - the start.

 


Caught shuttle at 7am to Cape Reinga. Brian the driver was full of information. Great journey with 4 other trampers (NZ word for hikers). Arrived at 9:15 and explored the lighthouse. Took the photos and videos. Then it was off. We only walked 12.5km to first camp site. I’m glad because previous blisters were still a bit raw. I’ll be travelling with the 4 trampers for this section because there are only a few camping sites. 2 English, French and Dutch. 









Thought for the day. 


I’ll be doing a thought for the day as I travel but it has to flow and not be forced. 

Today I’m thankful to be here, on the far side of the world. I’m thankful for Gods amazing creation. I’m thankful I have started. Let the adventure begin.
