Eight Hickmott children climbed onto one of their tents. From top left: Jacob, James, 14, 14, Caleb, 19; Middle from left, Rusty, 17, of Aaron, 16 April, 14; the bottom of the left, Shyla, 11, and Jesse, 11.
A light drizzle fell as families pack up their tents Hickmott.
This is not a simple task to Lynnaire, Andrew, and their eight children. Every child has their own smaller tent in oval around the tent canvas of their parents.
With rain and more in the way of Hickmotts decided to end their annual camping trip in the Valley of the Pohangina early yesterday.
“We come here every year and we have the same place every year,” Mrs Hickmott said.
