Mono Monday - Beginnings

After a lazy Sunday we did go for a walk today.  I would like to say it is the beginnings of a fitness program but that would be a lie.  We walked the beginning of the track to Lake Tarawera.  It starts just before Te Wairoa/The Buried Village from the eruption of Mt Tarawera in 1886.  We were walking under tree ferns or Ponga we call them.  They are a colonizing species after the eruption or the beginnings of a new forest.  In time they will be replaced by hard wood trees.  The unfurling fronds represent new beginnings in Maori culture.

Thank you Osuzanna for hosting Mono Monday.
