We were all up bright and early ready to start our second day here at Kingswood.  Breakfast was a full English, cereal, toast or fruit.  We then had some time to prepare for the day ahead and socialise with new found friends.

Throughout the day we had lovely weather and we had to keep topping up our sun cream.  We braved lots of the high activities today such as the Leap of Faith, High Ropes, Jacobs Ladder and the 3G Swing.  Everyone pushed themseves to try the activities and did a fantastic job.  Some of the groups tried fire lighting and shelter building and were very successful.  Our group leader even commented that they were some of the best ever made!

For lunch we had a plentiful choice of chicken nuggets, chips, quorn nuggets, ham and cheese baguettes, salad and fruit.  Dinner was a roast dinner – complete with Yorkshire puddings and roast potatoes.  Some of us had teriyaki noodles or pie instead and the waffle desert went down a treat.

We got to visit the shop and treated ourselves to some sweets and crisps before heading out to our evening activities.  Some groups went to campfire while most tried out the scrapheap challenge.  This year we had to make a box that would hold a water balloon that would not burst when dropped from a certain height.  Anyone who was successful got to throw the balloons at the leaders.  It was great fun!

We are more tired tonight so are ready to get to bed and sleep ready for another long, fun-filled day of activities tomorrow!
