It’s day six of the adventure challenge

Echo 5 are here at field base after spending last night in the survival camp in bashers (a bit like hammocks) luckily the rain didn’t put them off sleeping under the stars and they cooked themselves up a storm. Today they’ll be painting a mural to decorate field base in Mysore and trying to clock up the points with some team games.

The groups are completing a circuit of activities and today sees Charlie 1 rafting at Lakeside in the sunshine, Charlie 2 are on the first day of their trek, hot on the heels of Charlie 3 who are on their second day. Charlie 4 are enjoying a leisurely bike ride of 72km and Echo 6 are kayaking across the lake to Lakeside camp where they will camp tonight.

Some of the field base team have been out and about watching the rafting (a very impressive 38 minutes from Echo 5 is the best so far), cycling and kayaking. All the groups are having a whale of a time in the monsoon rain and are definitely looking forward to cold bucket showers when they get back to field base (Lower Camp) on Monday.

Egg update:
Echo 5 have purchased an egg carrier and their eggs are intact, Echo 6’s eggs are still safely buried at Anthony’s camp where they will spend tomorrow (their last night). All the Charlie roups still have there eggs but can they hold them steady for another day...
