Party (Saturday) - Kim, Albert, Chuin Nee, Digi Dave, Dave N

This was the second day of a weekend of canyoning to celebrate Kim's birthday. On Saturday we had visited this nice canyon.



Above - Magda, Lois, Chris and Rik had done back to town. The rest of us camped out. The aluminium box in the front is a smoker - used by Chuin Nee to prepare a wonderful smoked ocean trout for our dinner (washed down with suitable wines of course)
