Tuesday, Nov. 22nd Part I

Hello,

It felt good to have the morning off so that I could do a little exploring.  I hopped the bus into town - it's a nice quick ride.  Walked along the beach and then hiked to the top of the Mount or "Mauao" as it is traditionally named.

It's a neat little town at the base of the Mount with a port on one side, the bay/ocean on the other side, a long stretch of beach, and a hillside filled with grazing sheep.  The hike took about 40 minutes to the top, it was steep and along the way there were 460 steps.  There were a few people who were running up and down it.  Crazy - it made me realize I'm not 20 anymore.
