Goodbye Taranaki...But First...

Can't visit New Plymouth without several trips to see the monkeys and other zoo animals. The kids decided they could the teach the capuchins to dance!


Cooper had an infected eye so had to wait for the chemist in the mall to open, then he needed a sleep after having a terrible night with his eye. So we drove to the foot of the mountain at the south, woke him, and went for a lovely bush walk to Dawson Falls. Was almost drizzling, and we could hardly see the mountain, but with all the tracks there, can't wait to go back, in either sun or snow!








Foot of the 18m high falls









Cooper did the whole walk easily, even though some of the steps and boulders were quite high!


And on the last part up the road, Lily decided the rubbish was awful so had to pick it all up, often with the help of Eden flicking it out with her umbrella!
