We returned to Gore to pick-up some supplies and get a powered site c/o the warden Brendon, always a helpful guy. There was the usual Saturday morning school rugby tournament happening, and thoughtless people tried parking around us blocking us in (when there was plenty of space elsewhere). We met NZ blogger Jackie living in her camper - a typical Kiwi story of selling-up in Whangamata and travelling around the country with her dog. We had a chat about the experience of driving down the West Coast - so much poison that it was unsafe even to let your dog out of the car without being paranoid. We would later re-visit the West Coast to talk to friends about the poisoning operations there...
But meanwhile, we enjoyed our return to Gore, home of trout fishing. Before we ventured to Athol for a fund-raising event...
