First Days at Combined Rally at Takapau

 It was a lovely day when we were all packed up and ready to leave on our next caravan adventure.


Getting ready to get on the road

Our caravan club had organised a combined rally at Takapau with the Wairarapa Caravan Club.  Four of us arrived a day early, just because we could, to find the camp chocker with Jayco caravans and motorhomes - they were having a roving rally and were moving out the following morning.


The two of us arrived a day early

The Jayco group moved out bright and early the following morning.  Robin and Owen sat out in the morning sun on the recently vacated grass waiting for their morning tea to be delivered.


Patiently waiting

Over the course of the day, caravans arrived and slotted into place.  The club flags were raised, and the weekend rally started.

The outgoing caretaker had us intrigued when she wheeled her Lilac Birman cat out in a pet stroller.  We had never seen such a thing, but the cat seemed very content to sit back and be wheeled around.


Happy cat, happy owner

On Saturday evening we all met up in the dining room and ate our meals together, followed by shared desserts.  This is always fun, all sorts of desserts arrived, from ice-cream, trifles, chocolate balls, sticky date pudding, and much more.  Something for all tastes and no one went hungry, I'm sure.
