if you can visit the site of the camp in NZ Spring, you will see the lovely flowering cherry trees in blossom. .its beautiful, worth sitting there and rest awhile thinking of history.

I had visitors to Carterton the other week, and we did Heritage Museum at Featherston. they appreciated being shown what we have to offer around the Valley… they have some treasures in this museum, and all my work on WW1 soldiers will end up with them, am researching the back ground of the soldiers, have some lovely information on some of them..

Thanks for your comment Adele. Yes – visitors to the Wairarapa can see some interesting displays related to the world wars at Featherston’s Heritage Museum.

I was down at the Japanese Peace Garden the other week.. flowering cherry trees, lovely when in bloom! Then went on to the Heritage Museum in Featherston to show visitors to the area, what they had for both WW1 and WW2. Photographs of this area on my computer! Well worth viewing the Heritage Museum.. Highly recommended.
