Cyclone Vaianu was heading toward Nz so we headed back to Taupo to a safe spot to park up for a few days in the morning we did a little walk on kevs track, First time on the opposite side of Huka Falls, didn’t know there was redwoods around here, the sky was changing, wind was picking up, our phones went off civil defence emergency alert‼️, then police turned up asking every camper to evacuate this area as it was hit hard last time, headed to a safer place and the storm passed without a problem for us, now on our last week before heading to Oz then home.
Some times things don’t go the way you want problems with the bus at the start then the weather, ferries cancelled, fuel crisis, but we won’t give up and there will be a next time.
