New Plymouth to Stratford

2/9/20

Hi. Today was awesome. We walked to a Sunday market. I got a toy. We got an ice cream and played at the park. Then we drove to Stratford. When we got ther we went to the cumonity pool. Then went to our campsite and had diner.

Extra Details: had a food art Philippine lunch at Sunday market to remind us of the Arroz Caldo chicken soup we used to eat in Saudi Arabia. Debated somewhat to do freedom camping in a Stratford but there were not a nearby restroom options. Town had a lot of signs warning you that you were being watched. Town known for historic glockenspiel clock tower. Went into 100+ year old “King Theater” but missed start of movie. Theatre is kept operational on a trust. Lady inside toured us around the theatre and around backstage areas. Showed us some historical projectors and how the digital films work now. Built with a large balcony section for additional seating.
Next door is also an old bookstore which we were allowed a quick peak in and I purchased a 1963 Beverly hillbillies chapter book! Ha
