Bloem went on a hike

 The Rainy Hike!

We were in the choppy water. We were on our way to Kaiteriteri to pick someone up in a water taxi boat. 

We have to go to Apple Split Rock for a tour. We were all a bit sick.

We were supposed to go to Onetahuti but the waves got bigger the further you went. So, we got off the boat at Torrent Bay. 

Then we walked 2 hours and 10 minutes to Bark Bay.

On the way we had to cross a big bridge and the water underneath it was really brown because of all of the rain. 

We were the first ones to get to the hut at Bark Bay. 

There was a room that had six beds. So, we set up our sleeping bags in there. Then we hung our clothes up because it was raining when walking. 

The next day we packed our bags and got ready to walk to the Anchorage hut.

Once we got to Torrent Bay, we had to cross the estuary.The water was a bit higher than your knees.

We were so happy to see the Anchorage hut. We dried all of our stuff above the fire.

Once we woke up the next morning,  we had to walk all the way back to Marahau, that was 12.5 km.

Once we got there, we were so happy to see  Marahau. 

I loved walking the Abel Tasman.
