About Wash Base 718 Kawhe Me Te Whare Horoi

He matatini o te kawhe me te whare horoi. He pai te hono o enei me te kore he rohe. He waahi ka taea e te tangata te noho waatea ki ta ratou e hiahia ai. Ko nga tae matua he ma, he parauri maori, he kikorangi puru-matomato hei nako, Ko nga otaota kua tino whakatohia he waahi pai. He rite ki te whare takutai i te taha o te moana. Ko te whare karakara e tu mai ana i roto i te waahi e kapi ana i nga whare tawhito. Ka torohia e te tini o nga manuhiri, te rangatahi me te pakeke, te tane me te wahine, ka noho hei tohu whenua mo te hapori, hei waahi hoki mo te whakahoahoa.
