Day of Adventure

Monday, April 4 We just came back from an amazing experience. Thanks Drury Rotary club, pilots Phil and Chris, and day hosts John and Trevor!! We flew to the west coast in two little planes. On way, we flew around the city of Auckland and Rangitoto. After visiting Limestone Village which is 8,000 acres of land with 2,500 cows and 8,000 sheep, we went Nikal Caves with Phillip as our tour guide. It was an hour tramp through open and tight spaces and a stream of water, and something we will never forget. It was exhilarating!!! There was one part where we had to sliver down and then crawl on our hands and knees - through the stream that runs throughout the entire cave. And there was another area where we turned off our torches (flashlights) and looked up to see the glow worms. It was like being in a planitarium. An hour to rest and then off we go to present at the Drury Rotary Club. Look forward to meeting the members and thanking them for hosting us this week and a great day! - Pictures soon!
