If you’ve not been to Piha, New Zealand, here’s a scene leaving the small west coast hamlet, driving up the narrow curving road to the lookout. The road doesn’t accommodate big trucks well. Although there is some building going on, Piha is surprisingly relaxed considering it’s about 25 minutes from New Zealand’s largest city, Auckland. We spent the NZ winter there in ’09, and this was our commute for groceries and visiting with Amanda’s sister and kids in Auckland.

It’s not surprising New Zealand is one of the world’s homes for Mountain Spirit Institute, and on my life list of places to visit!
Growing up in small town NH, I can completely relate to the beauty of New Zealand.
