Maori Rock Art at Takiroa

Sorry for the brevity of the entries to follow.

Very tired. School started. Got to do up worksheets.

Anyway, back to Maori Rock Art.

Amazing to see the pictures on the original rock face instead of on a piece of rock on displayed in a museum. Sadly, some pieces were hauled out of the caves to be on display at museums in New Zealand, Australia, etc. And because of these dug-outs, erosion at certain parts of the caves is at an accelerated pace, destroying the honey-comb look of the limestone caves.
