That’s Gisborne New Zealand of course, the next stop on our safari. We arrived at Waikanae Beach Motor Camp to find two fellow Heretaunga members and one from Wairarapa Caravan Club. We had all headed north after the National Rally to check out the area
Our first view of Gisborne from the lookout.
Looks even better in the dark as it is lit with lights.
Look at all those logs waiting for export!
We spent a couple of nights catching up on laundry and other necessities. The last time we had been in Gisborne was for the Millennium Rally in 2000, its amazing how the town has changed since that visit.
Now who's that trying to hide?
A statue of Young Nick siting NZ 7 October 1769.
Look at all those logs waiting for export!
Not quite what it seems, this is a mural painted on the building.
Gisborne Railway Mural.
Derek had a long wander around the old Railway Station and track after checking any changes since the government mothballed the line after the last derailment saying it wasn't economic to repair.
Next stop Opotiki through the gorge.
