We spent last week here.
Its such a beautiful place, Callums family have a bach there, it has been in the family for years passed on from generation to generation.
Alfie sent a lot of time doing this on the first day and a half |
In all sorts of places |
There was playing |
driving to the mountain to try and find some snow |
there was a small amount left in a shady spot |
there was a child who wanted to pose for photos constantly |
and one who was too tired to even stand |
there was looking out for eels (I think they hibernate in winter?) |
At night there was marshmellow toasting |
and game playing |
lots of game playing |
during the day there were walks |
through bush |
to the lake in the rain |
in the forest |
past heart shaped pools of water |
there was confusion iver which direction we were to go |
there was hiding |
and there were tuis |
We dont go there nearly enough.
I don't know why that is.
Everytime we go I promise myself we will go more and then we dont go for another year.
This time we will be back soon.
We will!

What a glorious looking place!(albeit a bit cold..) I think you should definitely try to get there more often, what a treat for the kids!
Looks so gorgeous, I want a holiday!!! xxx
We visited St Aurnard nearly five years ago. We drove from Napier to Wellington, took the ferry to Picton, the. Drove to St Aurnard all in one day - with our six day old daughter, and her two year old sister, and eight year old sister. We stayed in a batch and took walks and went to the lake. Beautiful place. Nice and quiet. Although it was early January and we needed to light the fire!!!!
