ROLAND'S WOOD, KERIKERI

Yesterday, we went up to Roland's Wood in Kerikeri with some friends  to see the bluebells.  It was a lovely sunny day (perhaps spring has finally arrived).


On entering the wood a crab apple was covered in blossom.


The clivia's were past their best but still provided a good show.




We all took something for a picnic which was most enjoyable.  Far nicer than going to a cafe.



As we went through Kawakawa the train was heading along the main street.

    Looks like you went well prepared; everything except the candelabra! No Bluebell woods here, maybe I could buy some seed.

      Yes, everyone was well prepared so there was plenty of left-overs.

    I saw a time lapse video many years ago, of when the bluebells grew,and then flowered, and then closed up for the night. They are lovely among the trees.

    We used to always go on picnics and they were such fun. It seems to be something no one does now-a-days. How nice that you got to enjoy your day that way.
