Our traditional camping at 'Nuri' happened on the October Long weekend. Janice, Jerry and Jesse came for the first time. Abbey brought Nathan for a day trip on Saturday. My cousin Kathy also visited on the Saturday with her 3 children. Anything to get on my blog!! This is my 1st 'crossover blog' with pictures of Kathy's children also on mine. (I got my idea of blogging from Kathy.)
Anyway it poured on the Friday when Jan and I were trying to set up all the tents. SO we got a little wet. The new tent leaked in alot of places , so some gear also got wet. Not a good start! Jeff and his kids arrived late friday night and it was still raining so it was over to the Camp Kitchen for some serious late food, hot milo's and dunking yoyo's. It was getting better already.
Fortunately the weather improved overnight and sat/sun was great camping weather.
The rest of the family together with Lola, Matt and Amy arrived Sat am. After lunch it was into a game of softball. Lindssay, Lynise chelsea, Anika9 From Germany), Rochelle and Aaron also came and played. Noone kept score, lots of cheating and sledging and some great hits enabled everyone to have alot of fun.
Then Jeff, Jerry and I took on Aaron and Lindsay in tennis. A close game with Lin winning 7-5. Boy was everyone saw after that.
I ended up getting called into work so I missed sleeping in the tent with Jesse crying alittle-alot. Shame about that.
I came back on Sunday about 8am for a egg and bacon breaky. Very nice. We had a lazy morning and then we packed up to come home. We all crashed around 9pm.
Next time away will be 2009 as Cara's wedding is now the focus for October, November and December. It's hard to believe only 60 more sleeps for Clicketty
A great weekend. Hopefully next year we will see more come again
