Te Araroa 19/11/25

Day 55, Whanganui Top Ten Holiday Park to Whanganui Youth Hostel (1400)

A rainy night and morning which eased to light showers. 

Whanganui Holiday Park 
I walked into the town, left my pack at the hostel and headed for the centre to try and get some new glasses sorted out.
Walking by the river this time
Specsavers saved the day, I sorted out the glasses with them and they will be sent to Wellington where I can collect them on the way through in a couple of weeks time.
Main Street Whanganui 

I bought a new pocket knife to replace the one that has gone missing, it's a bit big but the best I could get.

Wood carving 
Time spent in cafe's, the art gallery and museum took up the rest of the day and I'm ready to get walking again tomorrow, although I did buy a bus ticket to avoid the main road in the morning.
