Hi BreeI like your post about where tog o in Kapiti. i have never been to the Raumati gardens but I have walked past it. Also when i went to Kapiti Island it took us three hours the walk to the top! and only an hour and a half to walk down. The boat ride also takes about fifteen minutes and is really fun!
