Russell Day 2

Esther was very keen to catch the passenger ferry over to Paihia, to relive happy holiday experiences which we had had with then Laughlands. We also needed some emergency underwear and someone in our party had omitted to pack any.

Then a bit of wandering round Russell before the rain set in.

In the afternoon it rained. Luckily the tourist leaflet had some suggestions of things to do it bad weather.
