Ruapoopoo





We got held up in Taupo waiting for the weather to clear for the Tongariro Crossing and decided to do some Wwoofing to pass the time (and save some $$). So we made our way to Ohakune, a sleepy town under the shadow of Mt. Doom. Well, it certainly wasn't paradise (like our last Wwoofing gig). To summarize: rusty water, boiled cabbage and a mildew infested camper van. We were two of eight people working there, which made the experience somewhat tolerable. There were two perks: free horse trekking, which I (Christina) took advantage of...but if I never get on a horse again, I'll be just fine. And Goldie, the dog. Goldie LOVED us and will no doubt cry himself to sleep for the next couple of nights now that we are gone.
