Said our farewells to Heather this morning. Our many thanks for the hospitality and great company Heather. Time to move on south prior to heading in land.
The trip from Christchurch to Ealing was uneventful and with the overcast showery weather we did not get to see much of the Alps. I must admit the contrast of traveling from Hastings with John and traveling with Donna to Ealing are like comparing watching Frozen to watching the latest Rambo movie. By the way John is quite fond of Frozen. I enjoyed the journey with John but I must be diplomatic here as I have a long journey ahead with Donna and announce that my preference is Donna.
Arrived at Ealing NZMCA camp and 1:30 pm and promptly ran a muck and got stuck in some soft ground. Donna told me to go there (as stated earlier I am telling the story). We were very lucky not to be the only ones here. Jan and Wilf of no fixed abode (yes Johnny Gypsies) came to the rescue and helped us out of the muck.
Mac and Rose looking at the tracks we left when we towed out.
Wilf and Jan invited us to happy hour over at their place and we had a great early evening prior to returning to Dogonit and a Thai Curry with rice for tea.
Up early in the morning as heading into Timaru to get our COF for Dogonit. Hopefully this goes smoothly and we will be on our way into the hinter land.

As they say Rod……revenge is a dish best served cold…….I think those who know us well will know that you are full of bull$#@@ & have an egotistical imagination lol.
I told you so came to mind when you got stuck but I am nothing if not the most supportive wife. It is wonderful to be adventuring again.
Hi guys, I did enjoy that post and had a very good laugh. I could even see you giggling as you wrote it Rod. Well I was in “Bosson Withdrawal” after I had eaten some of the yummy Chilli Rod had made, and had to give Donna a call just to hear her voice. Then I found her chocolate in the fridge door and felt all better again. Safe travels guys, I’m so glad some one was there Rod to get you out if the muck…..**** etc ?
