Gold Training

Some of this food was recommended - and some not. I might throw the Haribo in at the last minute - exped comfort food! I'm always amazed at what luxury items the girls take. This time my luxury items of choice are flip flops and a towel to have a good wash every day.

Today I was working in Aberdeen for Alison Culshaw on a Gold Duke of Edinburgh Training day - prepping for the training Gold 4 day Exped going out tomorrow. The girls are mostly from Albyn and St. Margarets Schools in Aberdeen. After doing their Bronze and Silver awards, the girls seem pretty savvy with expeditions - so hopes are high for a smooth training exped. The temperatures are down, so out come the warm clothes again (but ever optimistic, I'm keeping the suncream and sunshades handy - and unfortunatley the midge net).
