Hastings Cave - Cygnet


We toured through the Hasting Caves formed from dolomite instead of the usual limestone.  They exceeded our expectations and were spectacular!




We finally sited a LIVE Wallaby, they certainly weren't concerned about the local tourists.  And then one of the few remaining trees left from logging during the early 1900s.


The evening was still early and our hostess being aware of our interest in rocks and fossils sent us out to Poverty Bay to go for a bit of a look.  The shoreline was covered with fossilized sealife.



The Cynet Hotel was nice and friendly.  And we had delicious hot hazelnut and orange cake with very heavy creme.
