A couple of Buccaneers enjoying a peaceful wander
Max enjoying a brief glimpse of sun a the beautiful camp Iluka
But it wasn't long before the pirates made their way down to the real ocean.
And luckily the rain had stopped although the wind was still very strong
"How much longer to we get there" was a coming cry from the crew
And once there, it was time to leave due to strong winds blowing on shore
Back at Iluka another wander ended up in a rolling race down the freshly cut slopes
Although rolling in a straight line wasn't as easy as most thought
A few of the crew dressed up and ready for dinner
Sunday morning starting with the traditional Weet-Bix challenge
And some crazy pirate saluting to the Jolly Roger
Then it was off to Pipe-Henge for our "Scouts Own"
Another shot at Pipe-Henge
Then the real fun began at Challenge Valley where Joe demonstrated his monkey like skills
And the girls weren't going to outdone either, with many of them leading the way
Annabelle leading the way on the moving log
Matthew show the way down the firemans pole
And Annabelle again on the balance beam
The beautiful lake Iluka
Then it was time for some canoeing on Lake Iluka
Strangler was kept busy rounding up a few stray ducks
And Matthew was having trouble seeing past his hat
As was Sally with the cap she borrowed from Barnacle
One he was able to see Matthew and Zoe were sailing smoothly
4BY teaching the next group the canoeing basics before they headed out for a paddle
