Rails to Tales

After a chilly night, we ate breakfast and bid farewell to the historic Waipara Sleeper Cars.  We were off to explore the Waipara valley Greening Waipara wineries.  We reviewed our native plants and learned about the wine of the region.
Then it was back to Lincoln to catch the last few minutes of the Saturday Market and get some lunch.  After a break to unpack our bags, we had a friendly game of Cricket with the Huhu Grubs taking on the Hugh Wilson Warriors. Unfortunately, we will ever know the outcome of the game as an hour-and-a-half in, the game was called on account of weather.  A southerly change came up quickly and brought too much cold, rain, and wind, but the tales might be told of the mighty Huhu dominating the Warriors 42-33, or the Warriors coming back to crush the Huhu if it were not for the weather.  hmmmm...
Rest Up!  A few more adventures to come, m&m : )
