We've had a packed 3½ day long weekend. With camping, traffic that meant we got home after 7pm last night and then visitors from a supporting church for several hours today. I've no time now to write up a full post here, but will show you some photos instead.
It was Very Cold: down to at least -4℃, possibly lower! But despite the challenge of surviving in the cold and the inconvenience of the traffic, the photos show most of what we go for: the awesome views and wonderful space. They don't show that camping slows down the clock, so that even though we were only away for a bit over 48 hours, it felt much longer.

| Mt Fuji, sighted at a road stop on the way there. |
 |
| Stunning autumn colours. |
 |
| This was the view we woke up to both mornings! |
 |
Our tent tucked in to a nook next to a bank. We had the place
to ourselves for the first night, then a few others trickled in. |
 |
| Gives you a bit of an image of the campsite. |
 |
| Just up the hill, the view from the below swing. |
 |
The boys loved this swing. Though not terribly
daring, it was on a hill and it felt like you were
swinging way higher than you actually did. |
 |
| It's hard to get too much of this awesome view. |
 |
Looking up the hill (towards our campsite)
at the park golf course. |
 |
The sky was an amazing blue the whole
time we were there. |
 |
Towards sunset some clouds drifted over and were lit
up beautifully. |
Sigh. We were getting worn out by the cold by the end of our time there, but it was worth it to visit such a beautiful place.
In the coming days when I get some time I'll write another post giving you some more details of our camp. Stay tuned.
