The day’s plan was to leave Paul and Judy’s house just after
they’d had their lunches and we started this well. We managed to plan a few
more things for the south island and sort some bits out using the internet
until Judy got back for lunch. We made some sarnis and Corrie received a
slightly belated birthday present, due to her having to decide what she would
prefer, and this was an Amazon Kindle Touch. Corrie was super happy about this
and we know this present will not go to waste, mainly due to the sheer amount
and weight of the books we’ve already gone through and have had to dump with
Paul and Judy.
Once Judy had left and we’d said our goodbyes to her, Paul
came back for his lunch we continued to sort out our things. We said goodbye to
Paul also and began to pack the van once he’d left. This seemed to drag on for
ages but we eventually managed it and finally left the house at about 15:30.
We made a brief stop at Countdown (supermarket) for supplies
before making the long drive down to Wellington; well a campsite just outside
the centre (Porirua) called Camp Esldon. Here we prepared and ate a very late
tea – a chicken carbonara type thing that was spot on.
After tea we went straight to bed as we were planning to be
up and out of the site by 06:30, YUK!
