2018 Pyes Pa weekend

The weather Gods were looking after us for this years camping weekend at a private property in a Tauranga suburb. The park-like grounds for this event really lend themselves to a naturist gathering which started on Friday evening with happy hour as people arrived to set up their tents and motorhomes.


After dinner we all sat around in the gazebo until dark, oblivious as to the storm buffeting Rotorua with flooding and thunderstorms, only about 50km away. We got no rain at all!
The next morning a group from a local life art drawing group came along to sketch some of the members. Others played Kubb or petanque. Once again,. although the wind was gusty, we got no rain.


After happy hour we had a shared pot luck dinner then sat around the fire waiting for dark. Then we watched an outdoor movie 'Going in Style' which was very entertaining.


Sunday was similar weather (still no rain) so our own naked chef cooked everyone a big breakfast of bacon and eggs, hash browns and baked beans. Everyone certainly enjoyed that!


A masseuse came along to give massages to several members while everyone else sat around chatting or playing the games.


After lunch we all sat around chatting until it was time to take down the gazebo and head home - although no-one was in a hurry to leave!
Once again thanks to our hosts for allowing us to camp in such a pristine area for our annual event.
See you next year - same time , same place!
