Day 17
Monday August 1st

I woke up early and came downstairs to find Areef busy plotting out his kayaking route,chatted for a while until I began to feel ill. I collapsed on the sofa for a couple of hours before going back to bed, then spent the rest on the day there rising only when Jude got home from Vancouver.

They had apparently been to the space museum and had a great time saving the planet earth and turning themseles into aliens, another family meal, three huge lasagnes were cooked and I couldn't believe they'd all get eaten, Catherine said that the boys' friends would undoubtably be around and polish it off.
