Day 3: All About Ed's Receding Hairline By Emily Ball

Today we had yet another eventful day, starting off by being woken up by Niamh shouting 'are you awake?! We're leaving!'; which i thought was a joke, but unfortunately wasn't.  Our alarm was set on London time still...oops!  We managed to get on the bus in time and we looked around 6 more schools and we met so many sweet, lovely kids, I've never waved and smiled so much in one day!  When we came back we got into our swimwear and went in the pool.  It was absolutely FREEZING, it took me ages to get in but i did eventually.  After the pool we played cards and took photos of zebras and monkeys which got into our camp.  Suddenly we heard screaming and saw Maisy, Ella, Niamh, Alexis and Leo running towards us, we weren't sure why until we saw a monkey chasing them!!  Animals have definitely been a big part of our experience so far, we have seen so many cats, three who we've named Esher, Pooja and Garfield.  Also there are so many spiders!! Our first day; me, Ava and Alexis got into our room and there was a huge hairy spider bigger than my hand in our sink. 
Lastly, Happy Birthday to Rosie Cooper! Love you lots, hope you had a good day! And to family and friends hope you don't miss me too much ;)
P.S.
Ed Cooper has a receding hairline!

Day 2

Good Evening Everybody.  Apologies wifi is so slow that I have been unable to upload photos as it was taking ages! We will employ new technology from tomorrow - a message attached to a pigeon's leg!! Chris This Is War By Amber Bennett There are approximately too many spiders in my room and i am afraid to shower.  I have however, conquered both the bathroom sink and toilet, so i count that as a success.  At least my mosquito net is fully functional, so I'm pretty confident i'm safe from the enemy during the night.  Here's hoping i survive the nights and spiders all around the world suddenly keel over and die.

Last day of training and Victoria Falls!! (and another candle lit dinner!)

Image
Victoria Falls By Eva Roberts After being woken up by the sound of the church bells we had breakfast and headed out to coach for the final time.  When we arrived, all the amazing kids were raring and ready to go, all trying their hardest to be picked for the final tournament.  The kids were so cute and even though being exhausted I loved every second of it. After saying goodbye to the kids, we then headed back to the hotel and ate some lovely cheese rolls (my fave).  We then set off to Victoria Falls and on our way saw a family of elephants.  When we arrived we were greeted by some cheeky baboons trying to steal our stuff.  We then looked around the little markets and of course I bought a lot of things I do not need!  We then made our way down to Victoria Falls through the most beautiful rainforest over all the rocks (Mum would not have enjoyed it!!).  We then saw the bottom of the waterfall and even paddled in th...

Livingstone Tournament , the last one!! Zambezi River Cruise

Image
Tournament Day By Hal Williams Hello all, today was an early start as our dorm woke up at 5.40am because of the wrong alarm!  We got to the rugby pitches at 7.30, the teams slowly rolled in and around 20 teams turned up.  We reffed until around 1.30 and gave our second polo shirts to the winners and gave all the spare kit to the schools.  We had classic cheese/ham sandwiches and at 3.45 we traveled to the sunset cruise and ate food and got to see crocodiles, hippos and elephants.  The views were stunning and the trip was different, but enjoyable experience. Our Last Tournament and River Cruise by Libby Earl Hi to everyone reading this it's Libby here.  Today was our last tournament of the trip, we woke up, had breakfast and left.  I was feeling especially energized today as I have had an unusual craving for peanut butter and the other day I was able to get my hands on some at the supermarket....
