Appreciating Napier's History

We debated whether to take a journey around Napier, but we were amazed at the information given by Paul so brilliantly and well, our appreciation of Napier and it's people is with huge admiration for the whole area. Napier is a great little town, but hearing about the history is a must do to appreciate it's beauty!
