I’m at the Kurow holiday park, which would
have to one of the nicest I’ve seen, and by the size of it, a very popular
place in peak season. The walls of the park office are adorned with photos of
some huge salmon and trout taken from the Waitaki River, which bounds the park
to the north.
So with the laundry under way I wandered in
to the town centre, where I picked up supplies to cook my dinner, and then
stopped at the café for the giant hamburger I had been promising myself all day
yesterday, but never got.
Back at the park, I finished the laundry
and then rigged my fishing rod and wandered over to the riverbank to see if I
would have any beginners luck. I got a little bushed in the maze of channels,
and didn’t find the good fishing pools. I had some casting practice but caught
no fish. But it was a welcome diversion
for a few hours.
For dinner I cooked up a huge pot of
spaghetti bolognese, and somehow managed to devour the lot.
