Today, we were abtubtly awoken at 6:30am. We quickly got dressed and ate some cereal. Soon after breakfast we hopped on a bus to the Giants Causeway. The bus ride consisted of singing (although some say screaming) songs from Hamilton. Upon arrival we were given small talking machines. You got to click the buttons and hear all about the history and story’s of the giants causeway. We heard the Giants who created the causeway and took plenty of pictures.
After arriving back at the bus we visited a rope bridge and took in the beautiful scenery of the coastline. We then hopped back on the bus and went to Portrush. Portrush is my favourite place we have visited. In Portrush we went surfing. The Scouts went first while the Ventures explored. We were “stoked” to go surfing. It was very fun. We rode some waves and after, while the Ventures surfed we got to go shopping. We visited quite an intriguing Spar and then to a souvenir shop with an interesting amount of “prank stuff” like smoke bombs and water gun gum. We left a bit worried but laughing. We then re-embakred onto the bus and drove back to camp.
We had a very late but delicious dinner (Apache). Overall we had an amazing day.
