So, we're into the third night of the Jamboree now. Every night will now break my record for the longest number of consecutive nights away... not that I have any intention of leaving of course.
Yes, it gets a bit depressing when there's nothing to do, but remember that I was at the opening ceremony. Seeing so many Scouts from around the world join together for the biggest Jamboree ever is really something, and I certainly won't forget it in a hurry. I also met the Hong Kong contingent this evening, and we're probably going to invite them over to dinner on the 30th.
As for the future, the programme starts in earnest tomorrow. It's Aquaville for us, which is an element of the World Villages programme. As I sit here and listen to the faint sounds of the party going on outside (no need to go it's loud enough to hear from the Mountain Hub, 15 minutes' walk away!), I can only sit and contemplate the next few days, and try to keep busy. A big Jambo-Hello to everyone at home, and especially to Mum and Dad, who are day visitors tomorrow. Bad news mum - I'll be getting wet on Aquaville...
