Do you usually take the time to read the signage along pathways?
We don't always, but sure enjoyed learning some interesting facts as we strolled down to the Cape Reinga Lighthouse.

Upon death, it is believed that the spirit of the deceased departs from earth at the Cape enroute to their afterlife.
