Rugby and Volcanoes

Rosemary joined us at Eden Park to watch the All Blacks thrash the Aussies in the Bledisloe Cup match. We had great seats in the terraces and donned the obligatory face paint too.



Go ABs!!!!

Scrumming down for Eden Park's last game

Last weekend we took part in the Volcanoes Challenge (aka "Orienteering on Steroids"). The event is a race to get to the top of 5 volcanoes in the city. Participants can take any route, so it helps to have a knowledge of the shortcuts down back streets and dirt tracks!



Chilly start (3 degrees!)



But it turned into a beauty - Mt Hobson



The home straight



Finished!!!

G and H took differing routes, but we reckon they were around 18kms, so we were both pretty tired at the end!
