THREE buses on the road this week...

I arrived in New Plymouth last night to meet the bus to the sun setting behind Back Beach, the mountain looking like a two-dimensional Michael Smither painting, and the aroma of silage in the air...this week we're off to schools around Taranaki and Wanganui, with another bus in Whakatane/Rotorua/Taupo and yet another one hitting Christchurch! So while we're getting nearer to the "last stop" at Parliament on March 31st, the bus tour certainly isn't losing any of its intensity!
