At Oldsys

We left Tinwald in the morning and drove to Geraldine where we looked up Mike's uncle and aunt's graves. We now know when they died - sad eh? From Geraldine we drove to Timaru Airport, where Mike passed his commercial pilot's licence 40 years ago - more nostalgia. we then drove on to the Olds's place at Otipua just out of Timaru where we have been set up for the last three days. The South Island Optimist Championships are on and Mike made his presence known to assist. There has been no wind so at 9.30 on the Sunday it looks as though there will not be a contest this year. Mike also took the opportunity to do some maintenance on the plumbing in the bus. The pressure acccumulator now works well. Today we will move on towards Waimate for more nostalgia.
