Palaver 2015 - Friday Night

This evening, Akela and I arrived at Palaver 2015. We are really looking forward to a great weekend and it certainly looks like a reasonable crowd this year.

Tonight, after room allocation and a short welcome, it was time to participate in some short activities. We could do as many or as few as we wanted. The activities (or mini activities as they were called) included:

Water Guns and Rubber Ducks – needing to knock over the Ducks by using the water guns

Pick up the ball – Pick up as many balls as you can with a fishing net

Obstacle Course – riding a blow up fish then wearing a life jacket and goggles

Making Sock Puppets – we did this one and didn’t quite get to put their eyes on them. Akela thinks she wants to put button eyes on them (Which means she is going to need to sew them on). So we put on their hair, and put them in our bag to bring home.

After supper, it was time to sit around and have a chat with the other people who were attending Palaver for the weekend.  It was a good evening, but the warmth of the sleeping bags was also a welcome site.
 
We will apologise for the photo - Akela forgot to use the flash and the lighting in the room was not the best for such a photo
