Christmas has engulfed Field base in celebration of the Venturers and PMs return this morning. With tinsel everywhere and the Christmas tunes blaring out, we were so excited to welcome them all back from their final phase.
It's a bitter sweet time though, as although we're all so excited to see everyone and catch up with their news, it's all tinged with the sad reality that the Raleigh 10K expedition is coming to a close. But not before we celebrate and party in style!
It's final skit night tonight where each group will entertain, amuse and most likely sing a theatrical account of their phase. Then tomorrow we're up at dawn for the Fun Run before a day of wash-up and reviews topped off with the big leaving party complete with Golden Ganesh Awards.
I'll be inviting some Guest Blogs from the PMs over the next few days to summarise their final phase and describe their achievements.
Thanks also to everyone who's sponsored the Fun Run, over £700 has been raised so far! All the money will go towards Raleigh projects in India like the ones the 10K expedition have been working on. If you'd like to sponsor someone please visit http://www.justgiving.com/Raleigh-India-Fun-Run
Merry Christmas One and all!

Group Round Up - The Final Countdown
Myself, Polly B and Anna head out on The Loop tomorrow where we'll be swinging by Tango 6 to collect Del who's been out there with them this last week and then heading up to Charlie One for the opening ceremony of their houses.
Before we depart, here's a round up of all that's happening on the project sites:
The houses are nearly all complete as the group have been hard at work plastering, flooring and putting in windows. They've also been flexing their creative side designing a mural to leave a lasting legacy in the village.
Charlie Two
All twelve eco-santitation units have been built and their delightfully green coloured toilet pans fitted. It's just the painting and the finishing touches they've got left to do now.
Echo Three
Still slogging it out hard and loving it in the trench the group have also continued erecting more fencing. The group will be taking a well earned break today and go to visit the local Golden temple for a bit of culture.
Tango Five have been absoultely loving it out there in the wilderness. Yesterday they enjoyed an amazing trek through tea plantations and today is the biggy, the 26km trek. We wish them luck!
Tango Six
Tango Six have too been loving it, with blue skies above them and barely any leeches in sight they're having an amazing time. Yesterday they had a 50km cycle route which they loved and today they've got a gentle 14km walk with the reward to me, Polly B and Anna waiting to greet them at the end of it!

Phase Three: Join the the dance
On Tuesday the venturers arrived back at field base eager to catch up with their friends from Phase One, to share big hugs and swap tales. It was great to see them all reunited and see all the new friendships that had formed throughout Phase Two.
Changeover was a hive of actvity but had a lovely chilled vibe. On skit night the bar had most definetly been raised with some funny, some musical and some darn right surreal! The Charlie Two girls all looked gorgeous in their new saris but it was Echo Three who scooped the prize with an awesome The Good, the Bad & the Ugly take off.
Wednesday was handed over to the Graduates to run the show, as they took the reigns of the schedule, activities, food and entertainment. A trip to local village Jayapura in the morning was a lot of fun. The group were split into teams and given a scavenger hunt to complete. The children in the village were particularly excited to have us invade!
A delicous bbq feast was prepared by them for lunch. We then bid a fond farewell to Irena and Shaun ...
The afternoons was chill out time with optional henna painting
and then an Indian Ball in the evening, complete with an Indian drumming band.
Onto Friday and at last, Phase three allocations. It's all change again as the groups get mixed up for the final time. Alan Watts, the American Writer, once said: "The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance." So to announce allocations this time, the PMs each started their own conga line picking up their venturers as they danced across the floor. With hillarious results ...

Phase Two: Over and out
So here we are again, on the eve of Changeover two eagerly awaiting the return of the venturers back at Field base. This time we have them here for two days before packing them off for the final phase of their Raleigh India 10K expedition.
As always, Field base has been working hard in anticipation and preparation of the Venturers return: Myself and Polly B have been pulling together the expedition magazine, a long hard slog but hopefully well worth it for a great memento of everyone's time out here. Doug over in logistics has been his usual calmly organised self, everything raring to go with enough tins of tuna, porridge and noodles ready to fuel the venturers in Phase Three. Christina has done a brilliant job organising the loop shop (always a welcome sight for the sugar and e-number starved venturers) and creating the Raleigh India 10K t-shirt. Phil's been the reassuring voice on the end of the phone for all medical queries and entertained himself by writing, directing and editing our 'comedy' skit video ready for the venturers return. Whilst Anna has been masterminding the operation and Del has been a hive of organisation both ensuring that everything runs smoothly.
Out on phase they've been telling us what an amazing time they've been having. The projects are really taking shape and each group are able to tangibly see the difference they are making out here, both on site and to themselves.
Charlie One have now completed all brick work on the five houses, two roofs are up and they've finished plastering on one. Tonight is a closing ceremony with the village, no doubt a joyous but emotional affair.
Charlie Two completed all 12 eco-sanitation toilets. Today they had a sports day with the community and a leaving celebration tonight.
Echo Three have worked tiresly on the trench and made fantastic progress. They had a leaving ceremony yesterday where they enjoyed a big feast.
Echo Four have had a a slightly challenging phase due to weather conditions but have been resourceful finding other ways they can support the community and certainly made the most of their time out there.
Tango Five are jubilant after completing the trek yesterday! They're now making their weary way back to Field base on the day and a half journey up from Kerala.
We can't wait for them all to descend and tell us all their stories ...

Lakeside Living with Echo Four
Phase Two deployment saw me heading out with Echo Four to Huskurhadi and the self titled 'glampsite'.
Echo Four's campsite is set in an idyllic location on the banks of a reservoir with mountains overlooking in the distance.
Phase Two Echo Four's first task were a few renovations around the camp to ensure their newly claimed bashas were water tight.
The project site is a 2km walk into the centre of Huskurhadi village, picking up the digging tools which are kept in the local school overnight. Phase Two Echo Four will be continuing the work of the previous phase in digging the elephant proof trench to protect the crops of three families in Huskurhardi from the elephants that venture across the reservoir in the dry months to feed on their crops.
It's hard labour as Echo Four will be up at dawn every morning to work in the coolest part of the day. There's a sensible approach to work from the team though, who ensure they schedule in lots of water and snack breaks (a great relief for me!)
Afternoons are then spent relaxing back at the campsite, cooling off in the reservoir, relaxing in bashas and a spot of team games.

As it turned out, this was a good thing too as that evening a small cyclone seemed to hit the camp, so with trepidation we battened down the hatches and climbed into our (hopefully waterproof) bashas. Fortunately we all survived the night unscathed and so another day was spent at the campsite on Saturday for the group to settle in before work on the trench started on Sunday.

I had such a relaxed time with Echo Four and look forward to hearing how they get on throughout Phase Two.

Happy Diwali!
It has now been a few days since all the newly formed groups left Field base and arrived at their new projects.
Tango 5 had a great start to the phase spotting elephants on the drive down to Kerala. They are now well in to their 16 day trek and have already climbed the second highest mountain in South India – Misappulimala, which peaks at 2,637m.
Charlie 1 arrived at Uluvadu and got stuck into things by digging a new long drop toilet. They are now continuing with the 7 houses started last phase.
Charlie 2 have met the villagers at Hagaranahalli and settled in to the school where they will be living for the next few weeks. One the first day they managed to complete the foundations for 6 of the 24 sanitation units that are being constructed.
Echo 3 set up camp and met the locals. They have been having lots of fun continuing with the Elephant Proof Trench and Solar Fencing started last phase.
Echo 4 also had a new long drop to dig and got their new bashas organised before continuing work on their Trench.
A few of the groups have also had the chance to celebrate Diwali with the locals, which is one of the most important festivals in Hinduism. Also known as the ‘Festival of lights’ Diwali is celebrated for 5 days, and involves lots of fireworks, candles and firecrackers.

Here at Field base myself (Christina) and Anna walked into the local village to see the morning celebrations of Diwali and found lots of Cows being cleaned ready to be painted with bright colours, and everyone wearing their best clothes to celebrate ‘Naraka Chaturdashi’.
This day of Diwali signifies the victory of ‘good over evil’ and ‘light over darkness’. Small oil lamps are lit and elaborate Kolams (sand paintings) are drawn outside houses to bestow prosperity to homes.
Through the daily sit reps we were able to find out that Echo 3, Charlie 1 and Charlie 2 were fully involved with local celebrations, visiting local temples and being included in the community festivities.
Polly C and Del will be back tomorrow from Echo 3 and Echo 4 with an update of how they are getting on. If you have any messages for any of the groups leave a comment and all messages will be taken out with the loop vehicles.

Holi Moly!
It’s been Changeover craziness here at Field base as all the groups arrived back yesterday looking disheveled and dirty but with beaming smiles as they relayed their experiences from Phase One.
The Alpha groups arrived from 8.30am and Field base was whipped into a floury of activity as they were whisked through a process of debriefing, checking their equipment back in, submitting their best photos for the slideshow and having a much desired hot shower. Then it was into Mysore for an afternoon of pizza and stocking up on essentials.
The evening’s activity centered around the skits each group had been working hard to prepare. Charlie One's story telling style gave a great overview of their phase complete with Macarena dancing and Anu’s snoring; Echo Three opted for a TV news report and belted out some cleverly rewritten pop songs to tell their tale; Echo Four produced an amazing musical medley with theatrics of Broadway standard; Tango Five were the winners of the evening with a skit that had it all - flair, comedy, musicality and entertainment with a particularly memorable dancing elephant impression by Lynne; Tango Six’s skit focused on one particular ‘incident’ during their phase which they worked out through the medium of Jeremy Kyle – to very much humorous effects!
The night’s activities were not over though, as we sent them all down to their dorm to create fancy dress outfits out of bin bags. Little did they know that whilst this was happening we’d hidden to ambush them with Holi paint!
It was an explosion of colour and frenzy as the venturers were initially stunned but then found their paints and retaliated aginst the PMs. It wasn’t long until we were all the colours of the rainbow.
It was then up to the roof to party into the night …
This morning the group visited a local temple to pose for the expedition photograph and film the last scene for the music video each group has been shooting scenes for during Phase One.
Then, when they were least expecting it we announced Phase Two allocations by giving each venturer and PM a bracelet and asking them to find everyone else who had the same one!
The expedition was given a good stir as the alpha groups have all been mixed up to form Phase Two groups:
