Out in the Styx
September 7th, 2013
We pulled into the driveway of Out in the Styx with enough time to unpack for the night and relax with our host, Lance, over a glass of wine.
The clouds were hanging low over the mountain, threatening rain. It also was getting dark so our visit to the mountain would have to wait until morning. Lance regaled us with all the goings on over at Maunga, now called Sanctuary Mountain. There was a new visitor center, new birds, and new trails.
While we remembered old times with Lance, and learned about more recent events, Mary was hard at work in the kitchen, preparing our dinner. It was . . .
a delicious repast!
Next time you are anywhere near the Waikato countryside, stop in! The food is impressive, the company entertaining, and the accommodations, right at the foot of Maungatautari Mountain very comfortable. Be sure to call for reservations first!
You will be glad you did!
