Rangitikei River - nearly home

After stopping in Taupo and having lunch with my cousins, I headed home. The sight of the mudstone cliffs above the Rangitikei River made me feel like I was nearly home. These photos were taken from a layby near Mangaweka, the sort with picnic tables. I see they are reminding drivers these days to 'take a break' on long trips, and it is always much easier to do so when you end up getting views like these.
