Tonight’s update comes from Scouts Krzysztof & Emma
Monday July 14th
Today we went on a patrol hike to Gorseinon. We got up early in the morning, packed our bags and we started heading off. Nick also asked us to find out some things about the area to which we were going, like what famous person was born there. We went at a fast pace on the way over, had our lunch at the coast, and returned to Gorseinon to go shopping. We got some sweets at Sainsbury’s and snacks at Lidl. We had some spare time at the end, so we decided to stroll to the forest to rest. We picked some wild strawberries along the way. We came back to our campsite quite hungry though.
We lit our fire and cooked our dinner. Just as we were washing up, Conor called us up to the leaders’ tent and a game of capture the flag was organised. No-one won, but it was still fun. Afterwards, we had cookies and hot chocolate before going to bed.

Today we got up early, packed our bags, and separated into two buses and drove out to bracelet bay. There we changed into wetsuits provided by the leaders there. We got to do a lot of fun activities such as going into caves, jumping of cliffs and kayaking. I personally couldn’t get to the next beach but all the rest did except a few of us. We stopped for lunch, and when it was all done we got Ice cream. We then changed back and got warm again.
When we got back we had some free time and got told we weren’t to cook tonight. We just thought that Wendy was going to cook for us but then we got told that Conor decided to get chipper for all of us. Pleasant surprise.
At the end we gathered all the boxes of chips and sent a picture to the leader Gavin, just to make him jealous. After all chatted with our coco and cookies. Then we went to bed
