Making it to Bluff on Wednesday was a fantastic milestone to reach not only from a Te Araroa Trail perspective but also symbolic of having reached a place of peace within myself. I feel so content and calm. Watching the sunset on the night I got to Bluff was additional closure on the day and mission I had set myself. A long held dream now something I have actually done.
Like any big project there are additions and also catchup pieces to tidy up afterwards. My additional activity is to go to Stewart Island and I'll be heading there on the 5th April. The catchup pieces are when I took a few days out in the North Island for family reasons and I'll be walking those catchup sections from the 11th April. For those interested in how those additional days of walking go I will be updating summaries on my blog over the next few weeks as I go. For those of you who will sign off now and finish reading the blog - thankyou for following my adventure from Cape Reinga to Bluff. I hope it has inspired you to look into that big old chest of lifetime dreams that you may have put on hold, dust it off, open it up again and start looking to breath life into making some of those dreams become a reality. Believe....Plan....Do it.
