I have never been to Lucy's Gully - around the coast from New Plymouth, so I decided to visit. A few years ago this was the site where a young hitchhiker's body was dumped so this was all I could think of as I was there. It was a beautiful spot with the tall redwoods and native bush. I liked the way car put the size of the trees into perspective.
Thanks very much for all your awesome comments - most appreciated. It is a beautiful if sombre place.
