Some great photos in this newsletter and glad you got to my home town of Gisborne. You might enjoy this Kiwi novel set around the dense bush between Gisborne and Taupo https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Season_of_the_Jew
Terrific photo diary thanks Gideon. Really interesting to see your perspective on my old haunt of Hawkes Bay. Also, I listened to your latest pod yesterday. With the three T20s coming up in the Bay of Plenty, I thought you wouldn't mind some pronunciation advice. For Tauranga, it's "Toe-wrong-ah", with the emphasis on the "toe".
Always enjoy a good slide show and NZ provides plenty of scope for one, thanks. I was there in February and also enjoyed Napier’s art deco streetscapes, but didn't eat there. Quirky bookshops seem to abound in NZ for some reason, there is a great one in Oamaru (sorry, South Island). Surely you packed a fly rod for the trip…?

Travelling on the NIMT… did you traverse the spiral Gideon?? Great slideshow.
I always understood that the Royal National Park south of Sydney was the world’s second after Yellowstone. Wonder which it is?

I participated in a coaching clinic led by Bob Blair in Townsville in 1978 - I had no idea of the back story of his fiancée's tragic death.
Thanks for the 'slide' show of your holiday.
To purchase a Borges from an overflowing bookstore in a beautiful coastal town ... one of life's greatest treats
Great to see you Fit and Working Again
Just a gorgeous slide show!
Lovely travellers tale thx Gideon- so glad you avoided the usual tourist traps - any whitebait on the menu ?
