Last thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Back from 3 weeks of AL and 2,500km road trip around Hawkes Bay and the East Cape

Meh

I hope that "meh" is not describing the holiday?!

I haven't been up around the East Cape before. Any highlights?

[–] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No, it was the being back home

There were some wonderful beaches, a bit of a shame most of the freedom camping spots were closed for the off season, which meant much fewer choices of where to park up

Oh interesting they close the spots, that is a shame. It sounds like you enjoyed it though!
