Alltnacriche: Day Two
We started the day off with a good breakfast – plenty of toast, cereal and Danish pastries. After that, chores and an opportunity to buy some goodies from the tuck shop.
The various groups then set off to tackle the challenges of the day. Among these were gorge walking where three silly souls who ended up with “numb bums” (Hafsa says) dammed the water which they then released onto “even sillier people” (Ella says) who obviously got drenched.
There was bread making (or bread burning) over open fires which also scented the bakers a curious fragrance of smoke.
The zip line was a-maz-ing (says Isla) and the water challenge on the rope course was “totes brills” (says Isla again.)
The water sports at Loch Morlich was cold, very cold, very very cold (says Anya). But, at the end of the session, they were all still willing to jump in the loch and swim out to a buoy;)
Tea was minestrone, chicken pie or mushroom risotto followed by Eaton Mess. Num num.
Getting ready for bed now. We have quite a few seriously tired souls who desperately need a good night’s sleep.
Photographs will follow shortly.
