WALK TO THE FALLS

I see it is 9 days since we did the circular walk from home down to the river then up to the Whangarei Falls and back home.  We finally found time to do it again.  The forecast for today was rain but, although we had some showers overnight, it has been fine.

It is a walk we enjoy as the scenery varies.  It is about one and a half hours which is a good length and includes both walking on the flat and some hill.

Even though it was just nine days since we last did this walk there seemed to be a lot more fallen leaves this time.

Who would have planted a tree in the middle of the access to the bridge.  Seriously though it is great that the tree was left there and not removed.  I think I can see someone hiding behind it.

It was a bit cloudy so I took my small folding umbrella which acted as insurance against the rain.  A very pleasant walk.
