Day 12: Rest Day 2 in Kerikeri

Our goal was to walk as little as possible today. I think we were pretty successful. The Pagoda Lodge is a great little place on the river with good rates and its peaceful. In the evening, we wandered over to the nearby historic square and meandered through the 200 year old Stone Store, saw the 200 year old pear tree (which was full of character), and had dinner at the pub by the bay. We walked hand-in-hand back to camp and relaxed watching videos together and getting ready for tomorrow. We still have aches and pains, but I think we are in better shape than we were when we showed up here.

Onward and Forward!
