Golden Bay


Everyone we have met on this trip has told us how beautiful the south island is but I never could have imagined this much beauty all in one place.  After our epic journey through Abel Tasman we made our way over Takaka Hill (which is a big mountain, not a hill) and into the glorious Golden Bay.  Golden sands due to the granite rocks that make up the region line a bay full of artisans and other creative types who have moved here to ‘get away from it all.’  We spent 2 days getting lost in this amazing scenery.  This is a magic place- and it has touched my soul.
