First taste of Orienteering


Weather forecast was rain but with great faith and a decade of rosary, we had one of the loveliest mornings. Robert and Priscilla took us out west to Woodhill, through Kumeu for an orienteering event, organised by the Auckland Orienteering Club. We did the 1.8km route, took it nice and slow, with many stops for Robert to give Mervin and I interesting information about the flora and fauna. Priscilla took Catherine, Tim and Erica and zoomed off so the kids could clock in their times at the check points. The e-card was good for the kids as it kept them motivated to move along. 'tis our first time, 'twas great fun and we're hoping to do it at least once a month. After all that "hard work", we pigged out on Lamb Briyani at Westgate!
