Kawau Island
Kawau Island was the holiday destination of choice for our family, we had a boat, and used to head up there with other family friends or sometimes just my mum’s parents.
Mansion House, who hasn’t been here on a Kawau trip? There used to be a working farm on the island, and Governor Grey (who lived here) had quite a menagerie of animals and exotic plants.
View of Mansion House Bay and other near islands.
The copper mine, can you make out the chimney?
Kids.
Oh these steps.
Yes, that’s a palm leaf in my pants. I remember spending most of this day with a palm leaf tail.
