NZ trip: Te Kuiti

We say goodbye to Pauline and Len, and spend a good 6 hours driving south, through Auckland towards Te Kuiti, including a stop off at the Kiwi House in Otorohanga: this has an excellent Kiwi exhibition, including two Kiwis in a "night house" which is "dark" during daytime.

In Te Kuiti we meet up with Bill's cousin Kate and her husband John and have dinner at their farm just out of Te Kuiti. Their house is undergoing serious renovations so we stay at a motel in Te Kuiti.

Kate arranges for us to do a tour of the Waitomo caves tomorrow, including a significant discount.
