Another 7am start and we're off on the long Journey back home.
Steve has bought some travel Trivial Persuit and it actually does the job quite well and passes the time!
The teams are England (me, Kim and Sarah) v Rest of the world (Suzi (scotland) Paul (wales) and Daniel (Germany). By the end of the Journey we are on 1-1 so the decider will be the game tomorrow on the final leg home.
Tonight we are staying at Northbrook Farm - it's in the middle of no-where but has a pool and some very strange animals called alpacco's - a cross between a llama and a camel!
The farm cooks dinner for us (chillie, rice and a chicken dish - yummy) then Steve lights a camp fire - and gets told off from the owner! Oh well, at least we got to have the last one.
He bought some Marshmellows so we toast these around the fire and it reminds us all of Brownies and scout trips!
We also see an amazing Shooting Star - it was the most awe-inspiring thing I have ever seen. Shot stright across the sky and turned green at the end - and no I wasn't drunk, was only on my second bottle of Pure Blond!
After the long drive we're all pretty tired so it's off to our little farm huts for about 11pm. The farm is being fumigated tomorrow so we have to leave by 8am - am used to these early starts now!

Busy Busy Busy!
I know, can't believe how much we've done ourselves! We feel like we're missing something if we have a day's rest at the beach now! Don't ask about finding the time to write the blogs - I could do with a secretary!
