Thursday 18 June
We’re off again, this time for a short six-day trip in a hired campervan. Timing may be a little off, given the forecast, but we figured we may as well give it a go now rather than waiting till after the school holidays when the weather could be equally as bad or worse. We’ll be heading for the Wairarapa again, probably Castlepoint, but we’ll see as we go. We leave tomorrow so time to get the merino base layers and the waterproof outer layers sorted and packed. Must remember to pack the gumboots, too. Hope the van has double glazing.
