A Quiz (compiled by Anke van Dijk) and games followed the Saturday evening dinner. Peter van Dijk was responsible for the startling ‘donkey’.
left: Some of the people who enjoyed a delicious lunch at Pemberton Donkey Stud on the last day.
Andrea had prepared a booklet listing the Pemberton Stud donkeys and the history was very interesting. The Stud originated 19 years ago and is breeding ‘Australian Teamsters for riding, carriage driving and companionship.’ I had been looking forward to seeing Pemberton donkeys and was not disappointed — No wonder they have won so many awards. I wish we had another acre! photos for Pemberton Stud Lea Hullett
