West Coast Dreaming

Easter Thursday, van was packed and we were gone....

Missioning towards Greymouth, Bridg, Nevis and I made it to the Broken River Ski Area Carpark. Sweet, that meant a sleep in, and a cheeky ride on the Craigieburn tracks in the morning. Great way to start a holiday!!!!!!!!.

Eventually we made it down to Bee and Nicks new house on Marsden Road, Greymouth. Perfect timing for us to take off with them up Noname Road on the mountain bikes.


My hope for the trip was to get some kayaking done, the best laid plans and all that... with little rain and eveything, especially the walkable boating not working, it was lucky we brought the velocipeds!


Easter Sat had us trying to do some boating and eventually managed at the crack of 1 pm managed to fly in to the Lower Hokitika (Howie Wilson,Bee Robertson, Mister Magoo)


Since two of the Free Ranger posse moving to the coast, Howie to Westport to do.....?, and Bee teaching at Grey High School.




It was great to get together and go for a float

Remember, the deep fryer only gets turned on at 630pm. It was a desperate wait quenching our thirst!
