en 1893 et sur les terres de la ferme qu’ils ont exploitée pendant plus de 40 ans comme leurs parents l'avaient fait avant eux …. C'etait comme de rendre visite a des cousins en Bretagne pendant la guerre .Rien n'etait de trop : toasts, muffins, pain fait maison, confitures, compote de rhubarbe, yaourts, cereales, fruits et bien sur si je l'avais voulu oeufs, fromage, bacon, saumon ..........

The car has to be back by to morrow in Auckland and I rejoice to know it will be a Sunday which means the traffic should be slow!
I spend the last night of my 2500 Kms tour in a lovely farm outside the big city near Drury (near as well of the Lords of the Ring’s site) ; “Tuhimata Park” a comfortable and spacious house built in 1863 is belonging to Pat and Suzan Parker . Pat’s parents, Syd and Jean bought the place in 1943 and operated it as a dairy farm until Pat and Suzan took it over in 69. Now the land has been sold, the house extended but the oak tree planted in 1863 is still there growing by the beautiful conservatory which is more as an
inner garden. For the 10 past years the house operates as a
charming B&B. Pat and Suzan have travelled extensively, went to Ireland ( Ring of Kerry ) and France last year so we enjoyed sharing memories while I was sipping a complementary glass of wine before retiring in a big beautiful bedroom in my king-size bed watching TV!!!!The breakfast was magical in the cosy dining room .We took it together the 3 of us sharing our pictures with delight. Don't hesitate to stop there if you are passing by!+6492948748 - Drury , 30kms south of Auckland and GREAT !
