Well, today was certainly a better day. While cool when we got up and
cloudy, there certainly wasn’t a repeat of the Friday night welcoming weather!
Some of the highlights of today’s activities were the Akela activity, where the patrols were given questions about points around woodhouse and they had to find the answers, and of course the famous hair straightener incident in the toilets (I am still not sure why a hair straightener were on camp,– all to do with the disco in the evening apparently! I wonder if it will find a way to Jamboree? Think the leaders are hoping it wont…..)
Oh, and the female who didn’t like the kookaburra pulling a worm out of the ground and eating it in front of her. She got no sympathy from Akela, who took photos of the bird when she went to find out why there was such a noise being made….Akela thought it might have been over a spider or similar. But sadly not. That poor kookaburra having to put up with the noise.
Also, even though Adelaide Football Club didnt get into the Grand Final (Australian Football League), there was still a great deal of interest in the game and several radios were to be heard around the campsite.....
Today, the scouts got the camp site sorted (after last night’s hurry,
the was a bit of fine tuning to do understandably). It also provided a chance
for the leaders to sort the patrols, for the patrols to do some bonding getting
to know each other activities and generally start to get to know each other.

And we had a goodnight sleep tonight – certainly going to bed drier
than Friday night!
