Start of the Easter Rally at Napier

We took it slowly heading up to Napier for our Easter Rally, stopping at Dannevirke and Takapau on the way.   Arriving at Napier on Thursday, we commented on the many cars leaving the city and heading southwards.   Our venue was the Erikson Road NZMCA Park, nice and roomy here with plenty of sites.  Owen and Helen parked up next to us, and we were joined later in the day by Geoff and Eileen.  

On Friday morning after morning tea Owen got his ladder out, climbed up and helped remove our rather tatty faded NZMCA stickers.  It was a difficult job until he borrowed Helen's hair drier, that really made all the difference, and the old stickers peeled off easily.  Then he climbed up the ladder again and smoothed on our new stickers - what a difference, we can read them now.

With that job done Owen decided to check the torque settings on our wheel nuts, on the caravans.  Thanks Owen, for all your help.  What a busy bee you have been.

He was very helpful indeed

John and Flo joined us for the rally later in the afternoon, now we were four.

We met in the meeting room for 4zees, and it was Easter buns all round, thanks so much Owen and Helen, they were very tasty indeed.

How many men does it take to change the NZMCA wing sticker?

Only three, plus a hair drier!
