So just chilling out in Taupo at the minute....nice place. Had a fantastic night last night. Hit the town early then me, Vince and Hels decided a good caffeine hit was in order so headed to a place called Tongue and Groove. This is a lovely chilled out cafe bar place, we spent the rest of the night there siting in comfy sofas with a mug of hot chocolate and cookies watching a live band play They were really good fun and as Vince is a musician we managed to get chatting to the band afterwards. Turns out they are from W - heading off to wellington tommorow but am stopping one night inthe natinal poark - I am doing the Mt. Doom crossing tomorrow so looking forward to that!
