15th January 2014- An easy day and great BBQ

We did some light shopping first thing after having checked out the Cinema and there was nothing on that we wanted to watch today, but tomorrow and Friday are different.
The Aspiring Camp and Caravan Park where we are staying is really great and sometimes a little busy but this is not surprising as there is a big family cycle this weekend plus a marathon and several other things which means there are lots of visitors. For tonight we had bought a pack of six lamb chops and some sausages and late afternoon, together with a bottle of red wine, we wnt to the BBQ area and set abouty cooking our food. Several other people also came to do the same and there was Germans and Dutch and it was great chatting for quite a while until we decided to retire for the night. The wind is still quite blowy and rushes through the trees and can keep you awake and so tonight is ear plugs night.

Wanaka and its surrounds are really very beautiful and a lovely place to visit and would a lovely place to live although perhaps a little cold and cut off in the winter.
