Fourth Briefing!

It's incredibly hard to believe that we have had all 4 of our briefings and the next time Team Peru see each other it will be with our bags packed and ready to go. Amazing how time has flown by - there are now just 20 days to go!

This weekend saw us finish our training plans and hear everything that each of us had planned. I had been somewhat unsure about my activities but it was great to see that others in the team were feeling the same and that my sessions went down well - phew! We also received 2/3 of our kits which was exceptionally exciting as we have been waiting several weeks for its arrival - we spent the day in our rather brilliant red polo's to get into the spirit and took an opportunity to pose with our flags.

We spent some time bonding away from GOLD related activities by enjoying lunch in the garden, singing our hearts out to songs and going out for dinner. We also went through our kit list which is rather long but makes the reality of our trip even more evident. Alice, Laura, Amy and I also booked our flights and accommodation for onward travel to Machu Piccu - another exciting adventure to add to the list. 

The weekend was a swirl of information but incredibly exciting - I still cant believe we are so close to going. Now to tackle to kit list...
