Kauri Museum and Wenderholm

In the morning I have Poppy a bath in the campsite's baby bath (aka large sink). She absolutely loved it and kept trying to roll back in to the sink when I'd got her out! It was a rainy morning so we visited the Kauri Museum after we left our campsite. It was really interesting and much bigger than I expected! They had lots of different sawmill machinery on display and some huge pieces of Kauri wood. Also some interesting displays of how people lived at the time including a whole Boarding House which Rosie really enjoyed looking around. And they had loads of Kauri Gum (like amber) at the end with pieces that had been donated - several even had beetles and spiders trapped inside.
After the museum we drove to the campsite at Wenderholm Regional Park. It was a really pretty spot amongst trees with beach running around the little peninsula. Rosie found a necklace on the beach which the fairies left for her. She was very excited they left her a present! But kept trying to find them to say thank you...
Poppy has been a bit snuffly with a cold the last couple of days but still manages to be lovely and smiley and hardly cries at all.Les mer
