On the way to Taupo--Whitebay lavender

We planned to visit a lavender farm on the way to Taupo....



Unfortunately, it was CLOSED.



So we were resorted to take pic outside the farm..



probably the lavender not fully grown..so it's closed





it would b nicer if we were inside :(



Can only take pic with the signboard..
