Travelling-on quiz

Early in the year I declared 2009 was to be my year of travel and, true to my word, it has been so far. I have just returned from a fantastic 5-week holiday that led me to wonderful destinations.

Hawke’s Bay quiz

Last month we launched the Hawke’s Bay Places entry on Te Ara. I’m very fond of the Bay – I spent summers there when I was young with my parents and my mum’s family, and went to school there as a teen.

Now that I have my licence, I plan to get myself a car – and some car keys … and I wonder if they will make me feel grown up.

So, in the spirit of driving and cars, here is this month’s quiz.
