Whanganui Vintage Weekend, Sunday

 Out on the bike this morning..but no group ride as the others were tired after a training session yesterday.

Nice to get a chat with our coach and a quiet ride back anyway.

After lunch I walked to town..a little footsore as I wore my sandals...I'm too used to walking in trainers!

More music, but no motorboat trip as the queue has been huge..and myself and librarian don't really fancy a packed boat!!

We'll try again tomorrow (it is a public holiday) but I think that they will still be busy. 

Anyway..more live music , on the Riverside this time.







With traction engines in the background giving trips on trailers





And behind us on the river, ducks getting a ride on the tide


Early night tonight...I've already slept for an hour after supper!! All this fresh air!!

Looks like you're having a great time here, are you going back to live in Scotland or come here?

I'm not eligible to move here Amy...over 49, no employment, not exactly a millionaire!!

Funny it’s a holiday here in the US too—Martin Luther King Day.
