Lazy Thursday

This morning Maisie, Ruby and Molly were very lazy as they stayed in bed till 11.30, even the engine didn’t wake them up, whilst the other group were up at 10.30 docking the boat without the other girls. Luckily they woke up in time for breakfast and made it for everyone else too. Time passed very quickly and everyone got dressed. Rebecca, Millie, Jess, and Harriet started their trek to the park, whilst Maisie, Ruby, Lauren and Molly travelled to the park in a dinghy. It was a near death experience as Molly let go off the rope and it nearly got stuck in the propeller, but birthday boy John came to our rescue and plunged his hand in the water to fish it out. Soon after that Ruby crashed the dinghy into another boat and Maisie and Lauren screamed with fear. Meanwhile the other group were stood in the rain and could hear Maisie singing. When it came to Maisie’s turn to steer she drove everyone into the swamp and Ruby and Molly collected the lilly pads, whilst Lauren was squealing.




Nice cake



Johns cake was not so appetising

When we arrived at the park the group went over to play football with Wilson the football (from the film Castaway). The teams were Molly, Ruby, Becca and Jess (A) and Millie, Harriet , Maisie and Lauren(B). The score came to 7-2 to the A team. There were many accidents as the grass was wet. Millie, Jess, Harriet and Becca had their go on the dinghy, whilst the others went for an ice cream in the park. Millie was the best driver and Becca nearly capsized the boat on her birthday and she got everyone’s bum wet. It was very cold but surprisingly the water was warm enough for a swim. There were numerous games of cards. During that time Molly and Ruby were cooking some fish and chips. They attempted to write Happy Birthday in ketchup for John and Becca. It turned out looking like it should be saying Happy Halloween rather than Happy Birthday, so this was left for Maisie to deal with. Maisie and Lauren worked hard at the washing up. Meanwhile Becca was busy at cutting her cake for everyone to enjoy.



Happy Birthday Becca.



Being back at Glasson Dock is like being back at home. It has been an amazing experience for us all and we can’t wait to come back for some more fun. Thank you Ian, John and Charlotte for everything.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN AND BECCA!
