Hastings to Ngawi

Hastings to Ngawi

First things first… find an internet connection and check the Football Scores… yes! Chelsea 4 – 0 Bolton

Then we got back on to Highway 2 again, all the way to Waipukurau, then though Dannevirke which seems to be a VIKING town, (very strange) past Woodville, Pahiatua and Masterton, and followed the Pirinoa road through Martinborough until we got to the Aorangi Forest Park, we followed the coastal road all the way to Ngawi, the furthest point without entering private property, this took us to the Lighthouse, we climbed the steps (253 of them) to reach the top, which had a stunning view, we then went to the fresh water pool, which runs across the road, then into the sea, best water I have ever tasted! Then we saw the seals in their nesting area, at least 15 of them were sunbathing on the rocks, we then went over to a small camping area until the next day.
