On ANZAC Day we took the children on a walk up to the Kitekite Falls at the head of the Piha valley.
Took us about an hour as dear old froggy, our blind old labrador, had to sniff his way there!
Lovely bush (rainforest) on the way.

Reuben and I went for a drive out to Piha yesterday and as I was driving a flash of orange at the side of the road caught my eye. Rata!! I’ve never been able to get up to one so close and personal when in flower! Probably because they only flower every 3 – 5 years!

On the road down to French Bay.
Reminds me of the wild Bouganvillias in Far North Queensland (Australia) that would shoot up the huge Mango trees.
Steaks of brilliant colour on the edge of the coastal rainforest.
French Bay has an amazing regrowth of Kauri from wild seedlings sprouted after the saw millers came through 150 years ago.
