Reefton was the first town in the southern hemisphere to enjoy the delights of electricity (scouts take note!) and was one of the major centres of the gold rush in New Zealand.
We have a range of activities planned for the long weekend which include a treasure hunt, a trip around a working gold mine, some tramping and not forgetting Jorja's cooked breakfast with bacon, sausage, egg, baked beans, fried bread and black pudding!
As to to my favourate pie ... well that has to be the one with wild bore from the bakery across the road from the Three Miners! Again scouts take note!
Hopefully Papabear will remember to pack a dish cloth, some washing-up liquid and a tea towel although I feel absolutely sure he will manage without!

lol - don't need too - seem to remember a scout volunteering to do my dishes if she / he could come on this trip - so I'm sweet . . .
ooops forgot- I have the "wake-up songs" already chosen - wonder if the breakfast cook will feel spoken to!!! (Hint - Dean Martin song!!)
