Well of course I ended up enjoying it! Always, it's the same. Anxiety, trepidation, worry - all wasted emotions as when I got there it was all fine. What did help, a lot, was busying myself taking the photo's.
It was tiring, hard physical work at times, some parts a bit uncomfortable - all totally over ridden by great company, a laugh, some fun, good food, good drink, awesome views. There are lots of stories to tell but for now I think I will let the pictures say the 1000 words...
 |
| Mr K - pretty pleased that we had set up camp and he finally had a beer in hand |
 |
| Young tech who scored a 'day off' on Friday to help set up camp! He too was pretty pleased with the fact he worked out how to put his tent up! |
 |
| The camp before the entire team arrived. The tarps were a nightmare to put up - only 3 of us and a gale force wind! |
 |
| The moonscape where the camp spot is - in the lee of a sand dune. The other side of the dune is pristine ocean |
 |
| The genny - gave us light and powered the fridges - who says we 'rough' it |
 |
| The old lady 'princess' of the camp. She was not amused here that she had been put down on the sand. She did the rounds of everyones lap. |
 |
| Tom Dog - he waits for his love ... waiting ...waiting |
 |
| Great white fishermen .... just as well we had steak and chops for dinner as we sure didn't get any fish |
 |
| The Team - with only a few missing |
 |
| A boy and a dog ... priceless |
 |
| Awwww puppy love. This is Tom Dogs girl. |
 |
| Love the colours |
 |
| Magical |
 |
| Pumping up the tyres and a sad and weary goodbye ... well until work tomorrow anyway! |
Looks like a great spot and fun was had by all. All that stress and it turned out great - I get it, I do exactly the same. Think my middle name should be stress.

DeleteI have been buried under a small hill of tax paperwork, as well as doing my assignments for the writing course I am doing.
hehe, loved your comment - my house is starting to sound like the Adams Family!!
Looks like a pretty awesome weekend away to me. Your staff must all get along to spend that much time together, dont think I would do an overnight stay with my work colleagues! I love that photo of your dog and the sunset, one for a frame I think :)
