Beach Day

As we met at the car park for 10am on a very damp day excitement was brewing for the days activities, we first started by throwing a nerf dart around in a field before going to down to the beach where as a team we built a castle. We managed to build a mini river and accidentally gave ourselves a little geography lesson on rivers. After we had done this we decided to go into the sea for a little dip but to our surprise the sea was more Mediterranean than South Wales. We then went back to Joe's van where we all dried off and went for lunch and then Joe had to get us out of the warm van, which was a challenge in itself, to go and play beach Cricket which had many appeals for out majority made by Joe and Evan. During this game the rain started pouring down and the wind became really bad but we all decided to press on regardless (as all Scouts should) until we finished the game and retreated to the closed down Cafe which we stood in the nice dry doorway, and then at the end of a very damp day got to head home. We already can’t wait for next meet up especially as the jamboree is less than a year away!Read more
