Vince Crashpad Photos
We’ve been at Vince’s house since Saturday night…seven of us in a one bedroom house…it’s been…interesting…
The boys arrived first and took control….control of the TV that is! Having discovered that Vince owns Rock Band (the next generation from Guitar Hero) – a game which consists of three people playing guitar, base and drums and one singing – there was no stopping them. The girls (bar Andie) retreated for an early night….
Over the course of the next couple of days we’ve found out lots of new and interesting things…
- A large group can get through an awful lot of breakfast eggs!
- However much camping out on the floor seems like fun for a weekend, it gets real old real fast!
- Air conditioning is a beautiful thing
- Getting 7 people organized to do anything at the same time is an exercise in frustration and best avoided altogether
- Vince owns more cooking pans than any major restaurant chain
- Eating off paper plates makes the washing up much easier
We’ve also had a wonderful time rediscovering the fun of board games, cooking together, repairing the hurricane damage and hanging out with some of our favorite people. While I’ll be glad to get back to my own house, my own bed and my own electricity, I’ll also be a little bit sad to pack up and leave the warm company of our adventure race family…
…maybe Vince will let us stay indefinitely…. :-)
