We had a wonderful stay with Trudi and Macka. It was so peaceful. I enjoyed sitting under the shade of a tree in the garden, listening to the birdsong and reading for a while, a welcome moment of pause on our great ocean road trip. I had my first experience of feeding alpacas with Trudi. On their recommendation we went to other places as well as the 12 Apostles. including Bay of Islands, Bay of Martyrs, just as beautiful and not so busy. Check out the Shearwater birds 'mutton birds' over mutton bird island at dusk too.
We didn't want to leave the peace and tranquility!
