No te 6.30 matou i rere atu ai a no te 2 karaka i te ata o tetahi rangi ake ka tau atu matou ki Darwin; e po tonu ana. I a matou e whanga ana i Poihakena, i haere matou ki te matakitaki haere, whakawhiti rawa atu ma runga i te waka harihari tangata ki tetahi taone, ko Manly te ingoa, i rawahi o te kokorutanga o Sydney. Ko te taha moana o tenei taone tetahi o nga taha moana o Poihakena e tino muia ana e te tangata i nga raumati. Engari kaore hoki i pai atu i nga taha moana o Niu Tireni nei; otira pai noa ake ano etahi o o tatou nei tahamoana. Heoi ano, i waimarie ki te kite i tera wahi. I a matou e whakawhiti ana ma runga i te poti harihari pahihi, ka tino kite pai matou i te piriti whakaharahara o te Sydney Harbour. He piriti i hangaia e nga tohunga pakeha. Ka ui tatou he mea pehea ra i taea ai te whakatoro atu mai i tetahi taha ki tetahi taha. I pau tonu te haora i a matou ki Darwin e kapu ti ana, e mihi atu ana e mihi mai ana matou me era atu pahihi—e waru tekau katoa pea matou—no nga wahi katoa o te ao, e horoi ana, e whaka-hauaaua ana—kaore hoki i tatakimori mai nei te wera o tera wahi o Ahitereiria, he wahi kirikiri hoki na reira i wera atu ai i Indonesia, te whenua e haeretia nei e matou. No te toru o nga haora i te ata ka rere ano matou, e po tonu ana; kua kai katoa ra hoki to matou aropereina te whakatikatika e nga tohunga whawha mihini. Me pai ka tika kia pai ai hoki te rere i te takiwa te Rawhiti ai tetahi, te teitei ai ki raunga rawa; ka ahua maharahara tonu te tangata; ka pakaru ano hoki kahore he hokinga mai ki te wa kainga. Ka rere na matou, ka whakamau atu ki Djakarta (ko te taone tino nui tenei o Indonesia); kei te pito whaka-te-raki rawa e tawhiti rawa atu ana i Ahitereiria, no te hawhe pahi o te waru i te awatea ka tau matou ki Djakarta. Puta atu ana matou ki waho kua rongo matou i te wera e piki haere ake ana i o matou waewae, te momo wera e kore e rangona ki tenei whenua. He heke tonu te wera i a matou, hoki noa mai matou ki te kainga nei. Kei roto tonu hoki ra i te wahi wera o te ao. Kaore tona wera e hoki iho ana i te 90 te wera i nga ra katoa, puta noa te tau. Heoi ana a kua maia tera iwi ki te noho i to ratou na whenua. Moe noa iho ai kahore he paraikete awatea noa. E TATA ANA RANEI TATOU KI A RATOU? Ka tau atu ra matou, ka haere mai ona tangata, he kaimahi na te Kawanatanga o reira, he maori katoa no reira, ki te tirotiro i a matou katoa tae atu ki a matou paahi. Mutu rawa enei ahuatanga me te uiui i a matou katahi ano matou ka riro i a matou rangatira hei manaaki i a matou i tenei wahi o te whenua o Indonesia. He mea miharo ra, ko enei maori ano kei te whakahaere i a ratou sea-side resorts in Australia where thousands of people go during the summer months; yet, it is not much better than our own sea-side resorts here in New Zealand; indeed, some of our own are even much better. However, we were fortunate in seeing that place. It was while crossing when we got a wonderful view of the huge Sydney Harbour bridge, built by European engineers. We ask the question how it was possible to build such a massive bridge from one side of the Harbour to the other. We spent quite an hour in Darwin having refreshments, all the passengers, about 80 all told, from all parts of the world, exchanging greetings one with another, washing, cooling ourselves, the heat in this part of Australia being virtually unbearable; being so sandy, it was hotter than Indonesia, the country of our destination. It was three o'clock in the morning, while it was still dark, when we resumed our flight, after the mechanics had thoroughly examined the plane ensuring that every thing was in order. It was imperative that it should be air-worthy for such a long flight and being so high up in space. Some measure of anxiety does come to one; should disintegration occur, there is no opportunity for a return homewards. We continued on our flight, and looked forward to the next place—Djakarta (the Capital city of Indonesia); it lies in a northerly direction at the tip of Java far-distant from Australia, leaving behind Timor, the southern-most part of Indonesia and quite close to Australia. At 8.30 a.m. we Canon Te Hihi Kaa and Mrs Maharata Flora Kaa, on their visit to Indonesia.
