AUCKLAND BOTANIC & AYRLIES GARDENS 25 MARCH
We'll make an early start from Tauranga, stopping at Ngatea for morning tea en route, before visiting the Auckland Botanic Gardens, home to more than 10,000 plants from around the world.
We're lucky to be there while the "sculpture in the Gardens" is taking place at the venue. Twenty NZ artworks were chosen & will be scattered throughout the gardens.
Whitford is a country town and rural area south of Auckland at the start of the Pohutukawa Coast. It includes stunning verdant farmland and lush native forests.
Ayrlies Garden, Whitford, will be our second garden venue,& is a popular local attraction.
After visiting Ayrlies Gardens, we'll wend our way home.
COST: Door-to-door transport & garden entry: $95.00pp.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
