Therapy at the bottom of the garden - Pudding Island (Te Pao Titere Moana)
My journey: Living with and overcoming Synovial Sarcoma. A rare and nasty Cancer. Not a how-to guide but ideas and observations during my experience so far. There are only a few SS survivors publishing and I've found their information helpful and reassuring. The site is also to update my wonderful supporters on my progress. Image above was pre-diagnosis by my daughter of the 'Alien Baby'. This tumour has been removed but the battle to eradicate the disease continues.
Nice As Man. There are a few really beautiful spots that I love on the coromandal and up north, but none at the bottom of the garden! Looks like an awesome spot to kick back.
ReplyDeleteA fantastic photo which reminds me of the early landscape paintings of NZ. Not hard to see why the early painters were inspired by these sort of vistas.
ReplyDeleteThis island was once stolen by Captain William Cargill, but an important local native H K Taiaroa took him to court. More here.. http://www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-Nat1882Repo-t1-g1-t99-g1-t1.html. Its a nice day trip for the kids, at low tide you can walk across, there is a cave on the far side for kids to crawl through plus a rope to climb up on the top of the island. When you are there, pick up my golf balls from the beach and put them in my letterbox.
