I guess you get eels in the UK, but I’ve never encountered any. I’ve seen plenty in New Zealand, though their numbers are declining because of human activities around rivers and out at sea.

We saw these eels when we were staying in Okains Bay. But only when we fed them.

I’m so glad that all our travel this year is domestic. It’s lovely to live in a place where people like to holiday and the Banks Peninsula has so many places worth staying. I love Le Bons Bay, but it is hard to find accommodation there now, so Okains Bay was a good back up plan. Great bach, great beach and a general store that is well worth a look (even if I only bought enamel bowls for my pot plants).
