Day 289 (Sun 22 Apr) - Napier

Left Rotorua and headed towards Lake Taupo. Before we arrived in Taupo we stopped at Huka Falls. Had a lovely walk along the river.

Headed to the dam where we had a quick bite to eat before heading off.

Drove through Lake Taupo (although we decided that we will come back when we return to the North Island in late May).

Drove through some stunning scenery, some of it pretty remote. Stumbled across a massive waterfall which was a pleasant surprise.

Arrived in Napier early evening and checked into the Waterfront Lodge. Pretty basic and cold room. Later popped to the local supermarket. Sarb was having one of his pie cravings so we bought a massive pie which we cooked later in the lodgings with a tin of baked beans. Other guests were clearly impressed by our culinary skills. We are so classy.
