Reefton .. Awesome!!

We have left Greymouth in pouring rain, lightning, and thunder and headed into coal/gold country to Reefton.
We called in on the Blackball mining town, where strikes and mine fire were had, as well as the Pike River Memorial to the loss of 29miners lives just a few years back.
We also did the inevitable... drove up a country road looking at stuff not realising we could not turn around, as well as ending up on the Lewis Pass Highway with the same problem. .. such is our life on the road.... but Waymaker came through.
We ended up in beautiful Reefton... along side a gold stream, parked up in town, and visiting many second hand shops... what an awesome and a very moving day!Read more
