The Bridge to Nowhere

2009.01.05

The frequent swing-bridges were thoroughly enjoyed

Our outstanding "leader" accidently smashed his lip open the morning of the tramp. This didn't slow him down - he just had to slightly change the way he ate and drank!

Was it Steven or Duncan that bumped me just as I tried to take this shot? - thanks guys, it turned out almost the way I wanted ;->

OK, so I was the last one back to camp that evening, but I couldn't help stopping to look at the moon!

Most of the big spiders stayed out of the tent, but this one was sure trying to get in!

When it was pouring with rain all morning, we were all very thankful for the shelter made of tarpoulens and tent flys by the fire. And to pass the time - cards, stories, jokes and songs.





Now we are all rather tired and sore - but somehow it feels good!
