Emile's Squire's Hike

Starting time: 3:30pm,

Emile and Chris Goninon, RA departed for D'Aguilar national park with Emile driving; the plan for the squire's hike was to hike in and out via the same route, then drive to BP park, Samford to cook dinner. Unfortunately, due to an organisational issue, the Scrub Rd campsite was not available. This is the reason why BP park was selected as a backup.



Chris & I saw our first segways on the way in; it was kind of incongruent with its surrounds, given the high-tech nature of it.



Continuing onto the Scrub Rd campsite, we didn't really see anything. Night was beginning to fall, so we decided to head back to the car.



We then headed off to BP park, samford in the dark, where we found a place to set up. Dinner included a back country tikkah masala, which tasted a bit like cooked runners - we used the joey's campfire, away from others to cook. At the suggestion of Rachel, we also cooked amazing Smores - biscuits, marshmellows and chocolate, melted next to the fire. A better dessert has never been had.

While we were cooking, the guys from laser skirmish were running around us, doing drills and making a hell of a noise. If only we were part of their game, because it looked SO FUN. There now stands an open invite for St John's Wood Rover Crew to join them for a night-long skirmish match.
