    Where's Otaki?

    We are off to India in September - our first holiday since Feb 2008 - so I know just what you mean about needing one!

    Don't miss the Otaki Gorge, lovely river! You can see it well from the little one lane bridge on the way up to Otaki Forks (right turn off Highway 1 just before town).

    It's an 1h30m-ish (probably less) north of Wellington on the West Coast.

    India sounds amazing..anyone I've known that has gone there has fallen in love with the place.
    A Kiwi who's been there and back to see how far it is.

    Yes, I can't wait!!! This new job is killing me and I need a little R&R. OH's job has been killing him the past few weeks as well. We don't really have anything planed... just going up Friday after work then on the way back on Sunday we'll probably make a few stops and see what's around.

    WOO (mini) VACATION!
