Birthday Bliss!

We have just returned from the simply and aptly named Goldn Bay, towards the northwest tip of the South Island.

Here we camped just off the beach, drank fine wines, explored the coast by kayak and allowed our skin to become the same colour as the sands...

This morning, we walked to Pupu springs and hydroelectric power station. Sounds like a human scar but the springs are the most pure water on the face of the earth, apart from a sub-arctic lake apparently! The hydro-electric generator is small and set well away from the springs, just gorgeous!
