More holiday adventures

Chris took Zach on his first tramp on Thursday and Friday, just an overnighter to Mt Somers, and the Pinnacles. They had a great time, and arrived back very happy, Zach had a wonderful time and they are both keen to go again.
Janine and Katarina went to Samstock in Mosgiel over the weekend; very cold on Sunday with snow on the Dunedin hills. They have had a wonderful time catching up with more Dunedin friends and enjoying the fine Christian music. They went with Geraldine youth group as we have some contacts there, and didn't know of others coming from Timaru.
Hannah had a friend for a sleepover on Friday and they stayed in a tent on the back lawn, a trial run for this Friday and the Girl's Brigade camp. They were awake very early in the morning, so a sleep in the afternoon was necessary! We went to the Trinity Flower Show, the Girls' Brigade had organised lots of entries and Hannah won a couple of sections for her artwork and necklace. There is also a lovely big photo in the Timaru Herald this morning as we were there at the same time as the photographers, who happen to live next door to us! So they grabbed Hannah for a staged photo.
