HARES: SQUEAK/TWINKLE TOES/PSYCHO/MOANA
Karlene on front horn lead the way into
the jungle and straight down a slippery hill. We weaved our way in
and out of trees, up and down hills, jumped over streams and balanced
on logs. Just what we expect of a jungle run in Diplo!! (Although
one hen was heard to be asking “Do you think it will be hilly?”)
At first check, we scattered in different directions until Trail
blazer and Duchess of Cambridge spotted the trail and called “on
paper”. More ups and down and lots more water and mud to splash
through. My dogs Jess and Zulu are particularly fond of water so
jumped in and swam around at every opportunity. They even lead me
off trail once just because they spotted a stream they thought we
should be crossing.
Second and third check was found by
Jenny on the block. Duchess of Cambridge was back horn and rounded
up the plodding walkie talkies to ensure we all made it out safely.
After one and a half hours of wandering round the Diplo jungle, we
were glad to see the lights of the tent with the cold 100+ and ads
waiting,
Rave brought her
sister Panina as a first time guest and was given the usually welcome
from Dizzy. The July birthdays were celebrated and Trail blazer told
a joke. Yummy chilli was served – thanks hares. I was in a rush
to leave (sorry husband was moaning of a bad back – but ok now) so
butted in to tell you about the run Masayo, Ika and I are laying in
Salambigar Falls. This could be one of the last times we can do it
here as they have bulldozed a rather large road straight across the
trail we reccied. We are doing two runs - a short one about 3 km and
a longer one at 5 km. Look out for the sign to show you where the
trail spilt off.
