1A Goes on Expo

Hey, my name is Jaimee and I come from Bellarine Secondary Collage.
On Wednesday and Thursday I had my first Expo (expedition) and it was so fun, I had an amazing time, we walked along the beach in Cape Conran, to a place called Dock Inlet. It was a gruelling time, we walked altogether near 17 km’s, I had a hard time but it was worth it. I grew closer together with my team, on the way back we walked along a path through the bush, it wasn’t as hard as the beach. On the beach near the end the wind picked up and the sand was giving us acupuncture. All in all it was an amazing experience but I now hurt, it’s all right though, every second was amazing.

Hi I’m Holly and I go to Kew High School.
Today my group 1A returned from a long walk up to Dock Inlet near Cape Conran. We started off on Wednesday where we walked around 8km through both bush and on the shore of the beautiful beach. It began to get very difficult with our really heavy packs, blisters forming and feet sinking into the sand. Our team was becoming very tired but we all encouraged each other and got to our campsite all in one piece! After we set up our tents and discovered our bush dunny, we were able to swim in the Inlet. It was heaps of fun and great to cool off after the long walk throughout the day. We were then able to cook up some yummy dinner, practising our trangia skills. We took the track on the way back which was a lot easier even though it was still sand. Along the way I was able to form better friendships with everybody in my group. When we spotted the bridge all of our faces lightened up and we came together as a group throughout the joyous moment of accomplishment! Everybody proved their mental strength as they pushed through all the way to the end! Well done WON AYE!
