    There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won't. We should come home from our adventures having faced their perils and uncertainties, endured their discomfort and beaten the odds, with a sly acknowledgment and revitalised solidarity of character.

    I am not working at the moment, so anytime would suit me.
    Maybe we should just meet up at the Camp ground on early saturday avo, have a bit of a look-see around Pureroa stay the night at Kakaho campsite have some fun on the way out to the 42nd.

    But looking at the weather it looks like it might be a bit average. I am not particularly interested in doing the camping in the rain thing.

    I am also thinking of heading up to Uretiti Beach for a overnighter, which with the nicer weather north may be more likely to happen.

    Kakaho is about here
    And yes it would be tent required camping, that is assuming there is room, as it is a first come first served camp site (I think).

    Will have to play it by ear at my end, I assume you are traveling with someone else, so if I don't make it I am not bailing to leave you solo?
