Duke of Edinburgh Gold Expedition. In Photo Diary Form.

I'm back!! And I'm alive. So far. Not dead from drinking under-boiled stream water or crawling with ticks at any rate, which is a plus.

This is probably better told in photo form:

Balloon Animal is truly the shiznit.

If only I could remember his name...

Yay, pictures! :D

^^ Flo thought to bring her camera with her (I would never have dared - mine would have broken...) Hence why she is in like none of the pictures. It's quite funny comparing what we looked like on the first day to the last day...

Yay well done :D :D I chickened out after Bronze, even though I loved the final venture. I wouldn't mind it if it was all just expeditions and I might have managed Silver if I had felt brave but I am in awe of your Gold-doing-ness!

LOL @ Balloon Animal. And at Ben and the phone alarm battle. So was he with you the whole time? It wasn't like that in Bronze...

Have fun sleeping and having long baths etc.

:)

I still have the real Gold expedition to go 0_0 Hopefully that'll be ok though...

Ben was with us except for Thursday when we walked on our own, met at lunch for an Emergency Situation simulation and then met again to camp at the end of the day. He was only with us because it was a practice, though, and he had to run through navigation techniques etc with us, on the real thing we'll be unaccompanied as usual.

And thank you XD I don;t know how I get through Gold, I hate camping... But I enjoy the walking, so I guess that's what motivates me through it that and the thought of getting home! XDXD

Home Again

Heya. Good to see you've come back ^.^

Looks like you had great fun on your DofE, I tust that you did not have to sleep in any more puddles!

The Balloon Animal looks so cute, although if I was in Ben's position I would probably be exasperated... tehe tehe

Watching Spirited Away, I love the Dragon ^.^

No puddles, just a lot of shivering T^T

Balloon Animal was the cutest. Ben was actually mostly highly amused by us. At one point we had him laughing so much he couldn't stop. I thought his head was going to fall off XDXD

I ♥ Spirited Away. Hoping to get Howl's Moving Castle soon ^^ Just bought My Neighbour Totoro. Strange and slightly plotless, but cute ^^
