 Going for a swim down at the lake.
Going for a swim down at the lake. Poplars, trailers and wind. So NCW.
Poplars, trailers and wind. So NCW.After a drive further south we set up camp at a nice caravan park along a lake in Cromwell.  I kept commenting  during the drive how much the area looked like central Washington State. I believe Robyn started to roll her eyes after a while, but to me the similarities were striking.  The mountains, lakes and rivers, the dry hot air.  It felt like coming home on a warm summer day.  Ahhh...It was nice. Up with the sun, and that's pretty early here in New Zealand in the summertime.  I figured morning might be my best chance to catch a fish, and sure enough it was.  After only a few casts I pulled in good sized rainbow trout.  It's been a long time since I've actually successfully caught something edible.  I was in high spirits when I woke Robyn to show  her our dinner.  We had just finished a couple of nights of tacos, and pasta was slated for our evening meal.  It wasn't the perfect combination but it was a satisfying side dish.  On the road again...
