TA Day 47

Another short day today and another day of dry feet! We had a slow morning at the hut sleeping in and enjoying not one but two coffees, knowing that we only had a few hours of hiking today. While our feet our looking like they’re healing (or at least not getting any worse) and we likely could have gone further, we’ve heard that Anne Hut is one of the nicest on the whole Te Araroa Trail and it certainly lives up to its name. It’s absolutely wild to think that all of these huts in New Zealand are available for free or at such a low cost, when hut stays are a pretty expensive luxury in Canada. We’ve been blown away at how accessible it makes so much of the backcountry, and this trail only passes by a fraction of the 1000+ huts in this country. Justin unsurprisingly entertained himself this afternoon chopping a bunch of wood to stock up the woodshed here while I read and journaled on the big sunny porch. For some reason this section has SO MANY BEES 🐝 but we were lucky to be mostly free from sandflies this afternoon.
