choo choo!











Just got off a very cool little narrow-gauge train just outside the town of Coromandel. Created by an eccentric local potter, it has lovely touches like clay sculptures randomly alongside track, wine bottle retaining walls, an "Eyefull Tower" and runs through a beautiful rainforest.

Rather chilly tho', it's barely above 10degC out there today and rainy. Might as well be back in Vancouver!

Stumbled upon this delightful little hippie cafe just down road from the railway where I can access internet for a few minutes. Nothing like toasty chai beside a wood fire. 25 more minutes to walk into town and the holiday park where I have a nice cabin for the night, and smoked fish from Coromandel Smoking. Mmmm.
