Day 15- Tom and Kristian
Today both groups were awoken by Carol after a lovey night’s sleep at Stumble inn, as everyone rose from their slumbers, in the bunk-beds one by one the remaining group members who hadn’t showered enjoyed an invigorating dousing of freezing H20.
Each team member was allowed to order their own breakfast the night before so most people enjoyed pancakes with either banana and chocolate or lemon and sugar, afterwards each operative of the group packed their bags and prepared for the six-hour journey to reach Aylos bay which is at the side of lake Volta (which according to Carol is the world’s largest man-made lake)
We climbed onto an untrustworthy block of cement, held onto a thick piece of string and trusted our instincts: jump, scream, drop and surface whilst laughing our heads off, in the meantime swallowing several gallons of unpurified, crocodile infested lake water. We then proceeded to get out and get showered down by some of what Owen calls ‘slightly more lukewarm than lukewarm’ water from the shower, which several of us did share with one rather peculiar looking frog, who, after getting out of the same lake as us, obviously preferred the finer things in life, such as all purpose soap and a dark wet-room.
Dinner was a fine banquet, in which we all dined with care – grab a plate and let the Spaghetti Bolognese free-for-all commence. Now that dinner has finished, Tom, Max and myself and writing this whilst drinking Robinson’s squirty squash straight from the squirter, and playing Where’s Waldo?
PS. Dear Tracey Holmes, your son is currently going cold turkey without his Milo, and he wishes for you to purchase some for him as soon as possible.
Much love, you are all potentially dearly missed.
PPS. With regards to being missed, there is no guarantee.
Hilarious, obviously having a great time
