On to a wonderful redwood grove in Whakarewarewa Forest only 5mins from the center of Rotorua and an easy drive from our secluded cottage in the country. The now 100ft tall redwoods were planted in 1901 to determine if redwoods or pine were the best tree to grow on this island. The pines won and that's what is being logged and replanted everywhere. Fortunately, these stately redwoods are forever protected in this forest.
Back at Blossom's Cottage we enjoy what Jane refers to as "a Judi meal" - plate full of fresh veggies. Yum!
