We had 6 caravans and 2 motorhomes on site for this rally. 7 members from the Heretaunga Caravan Club and 1 from Taupo (or Bay of Plenty CC or Waikato CC). Welcome to Peter and Anne it was good to have your company. Enjoy the rest of your travels. We also had the pleasure of the company on Saturday of our recently retired Founding & Life members Peter & Elaine, it was good to have your company and fly a kite with you.
The Vans in attendance
Some of the vans decided to take the long way to the rally and left home a couple of days early and stayed at the Fell Engine Museum POP and at the free camping area at Ngawi. Some of us climbed the 252 steps to the Cape Palister lighthouse (and are still suffering).

Before some of us climbed all those steps!
Bill and Val were Rally Family for this rally and had us on our toes all weekend with Quizs and games. The games included a straw and peanuts. Part of the hilarity was provided by Bill not being able to remember how to make up the teams – all good fun.
The festivities included: Kite flying, BBQ cook off, Picnic at Lake Ferry, Funny Tea Shirt Competition plus the normal banter at morning tea and happy hour.
Three of the humourous ‘T’ shirts.
The 3 ‘T’ shirts in the above photo read left to right: “I don’t need GOOGLE my wife knows everything”, “ WARNING RETIRED knows it all and has plenty of time to talk to you about it” and “Mr Grumpy” in the doorway.
Selwyn and Kath celebrated their 50th wedding Anniversary recently and this was recognised with a ceromoney on Friday Evening

It was nice to once again rally at this lovely school who are very hospitible and it was also good to not have the high winds we had last time at rthis venue. A very enjoyable rally.
See you at the next rally at LUTZ FARM, OTAKI, 26 – 28 FEBRUARY 2016
