Tarakena Bay hike



Incredible!


On Saturday we decided to take the children on a hike to access everyone's stamina!  This one was suggested by a friend and it was perfect. About a 10 minute drive from the house, not too steep a climb and the downhill was paved and fun for the kids!  The views were spectacular. This place truly amazes me and has me in awe atleast once a day, if not twice or three times!  At the summit (so to speak) there is the Ataturk Memorial which is a unique design with a well written inscription.  

As you can see on a clear day, you can see the South Island and today we could see some snow on the peaks!
