We were both up early this morning, so at 7.00 we showered, and then walked to the bakery nearby, for a devonshire tea breakfast. I had a hot chocolate with my scone, and Kaoru had a coffee. So maybe we just had scones for breakfast. The jam was delicious! And what better way to start the day than with whipped cream! We went back to the motel to pack our bags, and had checked out by 8.20 to start the day. We drove to Mount Ngungun, which was about 5 minutes, and got our hearts pumping with a 40 minute hike.

We sat down and enjoyed the view for a while, before descending back to the carpark. Then it was time to start our return journey. The traffic was much better than on Friday, and we were flying down the freeway for most of the way. We went to the cemetary to visit Donna and Nanna, and then off to have a cuppa with Donna and Molly, who had just gotten back from the BMX world championships.

We returned to Aunty Linda and Uncle Owens, and had some lunch, and then Aunty Linda took us to the airport. We dropped off our bag, got to the gate, and then were informed there was a 20 minute delay. So we were later getting home than expected. A great few days getaway, but now it’s back to work.
