Introduction

As a wearer in the Masterworks Broach of the Month Club 2010, Jo Mears and partner/BOM maker Sharon felt obliged to take Ross Malcolm's brooch 'In the Pink' on tour with them as they set out on a three week adventure with sixty other kombis around the South Island of New Zealand to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Volkswagen Type II in New Zealand.

Custard squares and sunshine

Day Fifteen? Bluff to Te Anau
Had a nice sleep in this morning then drove the van up to the shower block because it was raining.  Up the very steep hill to the top of Bluff hill - unfortunately not much to look at because of the clouds, but gave busbus a good workout.  Got the touristy bluff signpost shot at Stirling point then headed back to keris mums place for another custard square and a scone with jam and cream! Yay Agnes!

Had a quick look at Mildreds engine before we left Bluff.  Very tidy, but seems to be missing a few things that busbus has. Check out the name badge and twin love heart exaust system.
Convoyed with Susan and Dean today in their pretend volkswagen which was fun. Looked at a T25 and a transitional bay in some car yards in Invercargill.  For some strange reason, both Dunedin and Invercargill Countdowns had sold out of Schweppes Tonic Water, so have had to go for the Signature range option.

Had lunch next to a huge gum tree
Got followed by Dean and Susan all the way
After driving through drizzle all day we were very pleased to see the Sunshine as we came through the Hills into Te Anau
