Happy Waitangi Day to all our New Zealander readers – for those of us north of the Equator, today is an annual Kiwi holiday, celebrating the signing of the country’s founding documents; the Treaty of Waitangi. Now, to prove we’re not a bottomless fountain of knowledge – we do like to think we’re an honest lot here at We Heart – we’re going to hold our hands up and admit that, before we featured The Oyster Inn on Waiheke Island, we’d never heard of the Hauraki Gulf’s second-largest rock. In our defence, it is on the other side of the world to WH HQ. But this collection of sculpture installations on the same rather beautiful island east of the Auckland mainland suggests we have been guilty of quite an oversight, and it’s time to start putting that right.
