After a wet night in Ross and the wonderful lady form the motel letting us wash and dry all our clothes, we expected a wet start again. And was pleasantly surprised by no rain on departure .

  
  Misty morning and the receding clouds on the hills made for a beatiful site . 
 
 
  

Lake Ianthe , another of our control points . 

  
 
  The harihari store , by the time i left there were 10 tour riders eating , the most i had seen in one place for a few days . Maybe since poutu.  
  

One of the many waterfalls along the coast .
