Day 1

Picked up and paid for our Autotrail Comanche from Billy and Sally and left to load her up with provisions at the local New World. We then took off to "The Cove" which is about 35-40kms south of Christchurch. It is a freedom camp on the banks of a wonderful swimming river.
Our first night was quiet and restful, not waking up until 8:30am. Something totally strange (and very late) for Christine and me.
Today (16th) was a day of rest, and finding out how this wonderful lady we will be travelling in actually works. We also put up our NZMCA badges, and MHF identification; went for a river walk, slept, and read.
Roll on tomorrow. We are off to visit a dear old friend in Ashburton.Leggi altro
