Oliver's Rainy Camping Trip

The deal - take the three boys and three of Oliver's friends camping for Oliver's birthday.  Unfortunately, with La Nina, the first trip was aborted due to forecast thunderstorm and rain that didn't eventuate.  So, take two, and we met up with a dad of two more of Henri and Oliver's friends so there were eight boys and two dads.


The forecast looked okay, and, in between rain the evening we set up the tents, and rain on the day we took down the tents, we had a perfect day for climbing Mt Kosciuszko.

A brave start - Oliver and Friends are already well ahead though

Grand alpine lakes

And picturesque puddles

The boys sense the summit is near (and so are the snacks)

Apart from the walk, the campfire and marshmallows were probably the favourites with the boys
