Pinnacles

I've heard about this tramp so many times and being the tramper I am it was criminal to not do it so on Sunday of labour weekend I latched onto a group going down from Auckland and did it. Apart from all the Aucklanders everywhere it was beautiful. It was incredibly windy up the top, we were clinging to the rocks to stay on - all good fun. In my view it was a bit of a tame tramp - short distance with wide tracks and lush hut facilities. If you're not much of a tramper or bushlover then its a great little excursion.

Can't plug this enough

If you haven't seen the dvd: invisible children then I would recommend you watch it before anything else - It'll open up your heart and mind to the real stories of thousands of kids in Uganda. I have cried everytime I've seen it and I'm not a movie crying kind of girl (honest).

If you can't borrow it then get it here.
