Friday was an ordeal - for some a painfully long period of rockclimbing shoe shopping had occured (Karina had the patience of a saint), for others stuck in Spaghetti junction was the order of the day (and forgetting their shoes). But all was forgotten by Friday evening, it rolled around and base camp was setup by the hardy few. A slumber party, pillow fights, and random action were the order of the evening..
Fridays activities obviously tuckered out the less hardy.. I woke up bright and early but no-one else was up so oh what to do.. hmm go for a wander. So I trundled off down to Wharepapa to see where we weren't going to climb that day. I was quite impressed with my early morning effort until I saw Alex out running

The sun rose and those on the deck baked, Jen got hold of the camera and took some photos whilst we awaited the arrival of the rest of the crew.

2pm rolled round, so to Tim & Karina and the climbing gear. Hello Mr Froggat how are we today ?
And dinner time rolled around. Full Roast Lamb with Pavlova for desert how good is that ?? BJ, Rob and Tim got into some guitar action. BJ found another use for a bottle opener. For some though a hard 7hr drive was just all too much .... goodnight Ollie!
Sunday rolled around, too early for some, not so early for others. Tim-Bob and Frosty would have to take honors for earliest awake. BJ most dead looking. A mammoth feed was cooked up and everyone gained some amusement at Jens PJ's...
And then off down to the rock again. Great stuff. Except for the big-ass spider on one climb.. right next to a side pull.. thing was nearly as big as the back of my hand I'm sure..
