Supercars Announces New Zealand Return #RepcoSC #Taupo http://mwyr.es/3YGiPes

Our home from home for a long weekend - a snug little B&B loft in Taupō. Nice drive down with a diversion to visit family. Great lunch at Replete Cafe - excellent food and great service. Walks and reading this afternoon before an early dinner.

Checking Council’s Civil Defence facebook pages helps too, as some updates are slow to be posted on the official news websites of Councils.
ie https://www.facebook.com/CivilDefenceTaupo has been updated for #Taupo 9+ am Wed., but https://www.taupodc.govt.nz/council/news hasn’t been updated since 5pm Tuesday.

Short outages for cell service and broadband since 9am today have now been resolved.

EDIT: now updated, displaying 9.30am timestamp:
