With 22 weeks in the bag, we had 4 weeks left in New Zealand. Having visited a doctor in Ngunguru and had confirmation that Richard does indeed have a small inguinal hernia – sustained whilst lifting heavy rocks out of a river a month ago at Aio Wira – these were going to be ‘light duties’ WWOOFing weeks for him! It’s not painful, more of a nuisance. No more heavy lifting until it can be surgically corrected back in the UK.
He did manage to clean out the goldfish pond for Genevieve though before we left the dome on 19th April. The journey back out of the bush from Genevieve’s in the van was just as ‘hairy’ as the journey in, but we made it in the end - see the gate (oppositie) at the bottom of Genevieve's 4k drive!
From there we drove a short distance, only about 5k, to Ben and Zoe’s in Ngunguru where we stayed for the next week.
