It's hard to believe that as we drove through Gore yesterday
the outside temperature was 9 degrees!
This afternoon it is 33 in the bus with all the windows open and the fan
going! Good old Central Otago.
We got to the place we are currently freedom camping -
Pinders Pond - yesterday afternoon - the
day warmed up as we drove north. We are
parked between the pond (once a big hole in the ground where people looked for
gold) and the Clutha River. There is a
cycle trail beside the river and this afternoon we rode to Roxburgh and
back. Only about 5kms each way but we
are re-acclimatising to the weather!
This morning we took the car through the tussocky mountains
to Lake Onslow which is quite remote.
There were a few empty cribs there but no sign of people. Just a lake and silence.
