Danny and Jason built a huge bonfire which helped
keep the mosquitoes away. Those who hadn't gone
to bed early gathered around while Kurt read the
emails, that we've received for the team members,
out loud to everyone. There were some pretty touching
emails from friends, family and past team members
which were really encouraging for us to hear.
Thanks for your notes and please keeping sending
them and we'll read them to the gang as soon as
we get the chance.
This morning was an early one! Departure time
was scheduled for 7:30 am so most were up by 6
am, if not earlier. Everybody followed the usual
AM routine: pull up the tents, pack the gear,
eat breakfast, load the trucks and trailers, slap
on some sunscreen and jump in the kayaks.
By the time the kayakers pulled away en masse
from Safari Marina, it was close to 8 am. You
could hear their shouts of "Kayaking
for...Cancer" as they headed for the Poonamalie
Locks.
