| Thu 24th September The Ultimate Road Trip We have managed to get hold of the film 'Godspeed, Los Polacos!' Thanks to Janet Wilson for the idea (she saw the film at the White Water Rafting film night and thought our club members would enjoy it) and to Graeme Curwen (member of the Ruahine White Water Club) for organising it. It's a 90 minute film featuring five university students risking all to fight for democracy in the Eastern Bloc after claiming the first descent of the world's deepest canyon. Have a look at the short here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0pPK4obwjA |

| Thu 8th October Marvels of the Middle Kingdom Anja Scholz China / Zhonghua - If only I had a lifetime to explore... (and could get a visa for that long). While never off the beaten track, a month long guided tour offered a mind-expanding if not-blowing experience of the Middle Kingdom. Ancient cultures, fantastic landscapes, dazzling cities, monumental infrastructure old and new, glorious food, people people everywhere, but also puzzling questions and strange incongruities. Come and get some impressions, covering a couple of 'hikes' in the 'outdoors' (to stick with the tramping club theme) and plenty of other weird and wonderful experiences. See you there - Zai Jian! |
