We just got back from the Mikoniu flat hut tramp, at first, it had to be postponed because of rain, but luckily there was a gap in the weather. When we arrived at the hut we got our tents up then we went swimming a swimming hole in the Tuke river. Some people did not go swimming including me. A few hours later we got into our food groups and cooked dinner, the group I was in had sizzlers, we did some riddles around the campfire,
I only solved 2 of them. later that night we had to do a solo in the dark which was the part of the trip I was dreading, as I have a fear of the dark. When it was my turn to get a spot my brain was trying to get me to say, I don,t want to do this, but I just went along with it, around 10 minutes in, Mr-SW came to me and took me to the middle of the plain and we sat down, even though I was not doing it properly I still wrote something on the piece of paper I had.
The next morning Mr-SW woke us up by blowing a whistle and banging a spoon on a pan, it took awhile for everyone to get up, but when they did we started making breakfast, my group had pancakes. after when we had to cross the Tuke river I was kind of anxious about it as the location we crossed as it was deep, but who does not like a challenge. on the way back we did a fire lighting challenge, the objective was to be the first team to boil a cup of water in a billy. the team I was in won. in to get to the historic homestead (our lunch spot) we had to cross the Tuke once more and cross the Mikonui. When we got back to the carpark I was relieved to get my pack of my bag.
Overall the trip was fun tiring, and cold
Bring it on!!!
