Woke during the night with the horrible thought of being evicted from this camp with nowhere to go. First stop in the morning was to the camp office to see if we could stay on as I had only booked originally for six days. The lovely bloke was brilliant and changed my booking, adding another couple of weeks. He did comment that this summer booking madness only goes through to about the twelfth of August so I hope that he is right. This paragraph will give the Holyport lads a laugh as they warned me many times about summer booking chaos.

Forecast for Innsbruck
Only Friday the 10th has rain as <3mm is nothing
Talking to our lovely Dutch neighbours I commented that summers in Austria are way warmer than Christchurch. He stated that he has been coming here for years and it has never been this warm, usually about twenty to twenty five degrees. I looked Innsbruck up as we have been here for nearly a week and every day has been sunny and thirty plus degrees. We are very glad that we have air conditioning in the Giantavan which we now run day and night.

Haberdashery can be quite
complicated to get right

The camp manager said that usually they are not this full but people are flooding back from Italy where it is reaching temperatures up to forty degrees!

My book is proving to be a delight and a amazing time suck, feeling a bit guilty actually

The children dashed of to the morning camp programme decorating tea lights (doesn't get dark till nine) and hats.

In the afternoon the Disco decided to run over the new neighbours power reel, twice. They were very good about it and fifty euro passed over, settling things.

  1. It's poor planning not to have got "stuck" in the "summer booking chaos" next to a lake. Take comfort in the fact we will all soon be back a school and work...
