Day 63 - Takapau to Dannevirke, Woodville, Mangatainoka & Pahiatua

Day sixty-three arrived with blue skies that kept getting dark. We left Takapau after dumping and drove to Dannevirke. We walked the streets and then headed for Woodville and spent time in the second hand shops. We had lunch in a cafe then we said goodbye to Mort and Gwenda who where heading to Palmerston North, then Mana before visiting family in Wellington. They may cross back over Wednesday or Thursday.

Don, Gloria and Weldon drove on to Mangatainoka and spent time at the Tui Brewery. We then drove into Pahiatua where Weldon wanted to visit the cemetry where his Grandparents are buried. The cemetry was back at Mangatainoka so we returned, found the graves and went to the Pahiatua Golf Club to park up.

We are down to two vans now.
