Stories from the Eagars

Well…. I’ve been badgered into going camping with what started out as a few friends and now has escalated into  HEAPS of people!!!

I’ve never been camping before EVER and I’m soooo nervous but soooo excited too!  There is around 13 families going…. all with kids of various ages so I’m presuming it’ll be a laugh and at least we won’t be bored with that many people around!  I had to go out today and buy all the camping gear you could possibly need and I got myself….. wait for it………

…………………A PINK TENT AND PINK SLEEPING BAG…………….. How ace!!!

Anyway, Loz has a heap of pals who’s parents are going and so does Cam but as Kayl doesn’t ’socialise’ with that lot, she’s taking 2 of her friends along to keep her company!  I think I’ve packed enough food for the WHOLE campsite but better safe than sorry… I’d rather have food than run out and be stuck in the middle of nowhere starving!!  (well, ok, we’re only 20 mins drive from the city but you know I like to dramatise things!!) I’ve even bought rechargable torches, lanterns, blow up mattresses, sleeping bags, cool boxes… jeez, I’ve got everything!!  I’ve been told to bring cosy clothes for night time as it gets really cold!!  If I hadn’t popped out to the garden at 6.30am this morning then I would have disagreed with them but flippin heck….. it was FREEZING!!  Honestly, I had to put on my jacket… I think it was 21.5oC 

Anyway, I’m away to bed and no doubt have nightmare’s about all the creepy crawlies that will invade my tent during the night!
