We kicked off the family event with snacks, cookies and hot drinks. Everyone donned their trainers (tennis shoe speak here) and coats and off we went! Last year, we stood around for a while before the group departed the church square, so we didn't get in a hurry this year. So we dallied and missed the departure, oops!! We knew our way, so gathered our own group and walked down to the cave.
We had glow sticks and finger lights for the kids and wine in to-go cups on the ready. About 40 friends and our great group of Marines flanked us down the hill. The cave was lit up by a generator and a group of nuns (from Eurovision tv) sang through the night. The weather was amazing and so was the company!!
Back up the hill we ventured, and rounded out the evening (or shall we say wee hours of the morning) in great spirits (beveragely and mentally).
Thanks all for joining!!!
