We all arrived at the Low Gillerthwaite
Field Centre at 5pm. At this point we all settled in with Kelsey and James
cutting wood for the fire and Becca’s cook team (me, Kelsey and Danika)
prepared dinner which was pasta bolognaise that we all really enjoyed.
After dinner we were split into
two groups, the Durdians and the engineers. The engineers had to teach the
Durdians how to build a bridge (using paper, scissors, glue and pencils)
however we (the Durdians) couldn’t speak to the engineers unless we were
somehow touching or connected to them. If we weren’t then we had to scream which
Tia seemed to really enjoy. To make things worse, the engineers had to find out
all our little annoyances – such as having to kiss each other on the shoulder
when greeting, not being able to say no and hand shaking not being allowed
under any circumstances - on their own, which wasn’t very easy. However we all
really enjoyed the exercise, just and so managing to complete the task in the
time allowed.
Throughout the evening we’d all
thought of questions to ask about our visit to Tanzania and placed them into a
bowl. After we had finished our tasks for the evening we all sat down in the
lounge and picked out questions one by one to ask from the bowl. It took quite
a while to get through them all but we eventually managed to finish asking all
the questions that we had to the leaders (and Barney).
To end the night everyone sang
happy birthday to me and we all ate lots of lovely chocolate cake. J
Lucy.
