Tapawera Trials

We have a few things to try out. The fridge. The truck. And the dog enclosure.

When we stayed at Tapawera for the ‘Music in the Mountains’ rally, we both agreed, it was a nice little village. Plus, being close to Nelson is a bonus. So, we chose Tapawera as the destination to test out some things.

Firstly, the fridge:

What is it like on solar power?

How long does it take to cool and freeze food items?

Is it noisy?

Secondly, the truck:

How was the temperature when towing the rig over the hills?
How well is it starting?

And thirdly, the dog enclosure:

How easy was it to put up?

How long did it take?

What is the new gate like to use?

Also … I’m about to do my first interview on a couple in Tapawera, for an article I’m writing. So, for me, I’ll be trialling my interviewing skills!
