Day 6, 22/6
Today was our first full day in the most picturesque
place we've been so far - Oetz. It was a slow start
to the morning with brekky finishing at ten. $#!^,
Geoff's laptop almost got smashed by a flying football,
but thanks to Tom's catlike reflexes everthing was
ok, including Ros' face. Back to the day's story -
The girls, Ros, Emmie and Farrah started the morning
with a bike ride in their bikinis and australian flag
boxers. Then groups of the team trekked for an hour
up an extremely steep mountain to have a swim in a
lovely lake (Piburgersee), the funny part was one
group didn't even make it to the lake - they followed
the wrong signs and got lost and another group left
late and only had ten minute swim and still nearly
missed out on lunch.
After lunch the vehicles were stacked full and we
trundled to the Inn River and began an epic journey
involving three metre high crashing wave chains and
razor sharp rocks. This allowed for some hilarious
rolling and various other amusing stunts from all
parts of the team. Certain people began to hog the
waves and this led to wave wars, luckily no-one was
injured, only two paddles broke! On the home leg several
idiots decided it would be a good idea to stand in
their boats and fall in (remember this is glacial
melt water) while others simply went swimming aka
Roz. On the way home we stacked eight boats to a car,
and lost them all when we were crashed into by a massive
semi trailer!!! Five of the team are now in intensive
care in Oetz hospital. Nah, just kidding, we thought
you might be getting a bit bored with our tales of
happy times and decided to add in some fictional excitement.
HAHAHAHA. We have just had dinner and Tom & Roz
are writing this wonderfully entertaining story while
the rest of the team are chasing Tom's football down
the river (thanks to Booga - the fool)
Signing out - peace be with yall, we're off to help
rescue Tom's footy.
