Scenic Drive Recommendations

Sarah & Toby from Maeroa

Hi all,
I’m looking for some ideas/inspiration please.
I work for a resthome and once a week we (gingerly) pile in the van and go for a drive. We are limited to approx. 1.5 to 2 hours total and depart from Hillcrest area... the residents are mostly dependent on walking aides so they don’t leave the van. Whilst they are just happy to get out it is nice to take them somewhere scenic... I’m thinking places with nice gardens, lake/river views etc. however need to keep in mind they’ll be viewing from their seats! Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
