A slow start after a late night...
Debbie took us to this amazing Sculpture Park
Interspersed amongst 42 acres of wonderful garden are around 90 fabulous sculptures.
Some of course as usual are only “Beauty in the eye of the Beholder”
It was fantastic
Here are some of my favourites
"Nature’s Lace" by Jan Gosling $3,100

I loved this grouping

Called "Yards" only $2000
And "Teenage Boys Bedroom" ...Priceless!!!
So it was farewell to the park, lunch at the excellent French Style Cafe, The French Tart, sporting probably the best date scones I have had in a while. The Blue and white stripe awning...situated on River Road Hamilton.A quick visit to Debbie’s lovely Mother Dorothy, and off to Taupo.

John and Sue our Taupo hosts have a superb town house with a wonderful structured garden.
They have a lot of style….it’s a joy to wake up and gaze out to this.
