Drip drip drip ...

We woke to the unpleasant sensation of water dripping on our faces. It had been steadily raining all night and the water found its way into our tent. We had puddles in every corner of the tent! I got up and tied the fly out tighter while Ngaio busied herself drying out the inside of the tent and setting up a few water catching containers. So much for a snuggly birthday morning!

Once the tent was sorted and we had dried the inside, we were back in bed to Keep warm and dry. I made Ngaio tea on the gas cooker and she had a birthday breakfast of two minute noodles (she loves noodles). The rain was determined to keep us in the tent, Ngaio read her book and I dozed until the rain started to ease.
