Wanganui Or All those reflections - the first time 8th-12th July

My first visit to the city of Wanganui at the mouth of - I think the longest in NZ - the Whanganui River. Yes the lack of H in the city name is a point of contention.

What has Wanganui to offer? Well some pretty decent coffee shops - I know, I know I need help but thats another debate - The river, some great reflections, a Public Lift, great sunset, great view, a pretty decent lake, great coffee - yes it had to be mentioned twice.

At the backpackers in Wanganui met Franzi & Co - you have met Franzi in an earlier video post - God how we laughed. I think it was a reaction to how cold the hostel was.

Dalia & Nigel were heading North, I, on the other hand, headed back South and to the Capital Wellington, were I met a couple of familiar faces from early on in my travels.

Thats not that for Wanganui, I do come back for more Flat White...

Mr. Moccachino,

The Whanganui River is the 2nd longest on the North Island ;-) That means it CANNOT be the longest in whole NZ ;-) But anyway... It is still a beautiful river! Even or because of the H ;-)

Cheers!
Ms. Flat White

By these people having at least a cursory understanding of what the weather is will mean that you are not only more informed and educated, but will be better able to determine what, if any actions you can take to protect yourself and make wise decisions concerning the weather around you at any given time.
