Taranaki

With a little time, and a few breaks in the weather, we did a loop of the region around Taranaki.

Mt Taranaki, a dormant volcano.  You may recognize it in the far distance on the Tongariro Crossing post.

The remainder of our time was spent out of the rain, usually in a garden or art museum.
