I was doing my practice expedition for my Duke of Edinburgh Silver award at the weekend and, no matter how tiring it was, I rather enjoyed it. Camping with my friends and roasting marshmallows on a gas cooker was only the half of it. Walking so high upon the hills, I found it very spiritual and enlightening. The secludedness added to it. On our second day of walking, when we stopped for lunch, we were talking to another group of our friends, who were also taking the award, and their leader. He was so mean! He made his group walk up a steep hill twice! Just because he wanted them to! AND he's such a hypocrite; He told us that our lunches were unhealthy because they had 200 calories, but, when we all finished and had ice-creams (in the rain! :]) he had this huuge sandwhich with about 4 sausages in it! We now call him 'evil-man' :] Anyway, back to the point. As we were walking along the top of this massive hill, we were told by our leader that we would be walking among the clouds if it was a cloudy day. When I heard that, I thought how high up we were and that it was like walking with God. I was very spiritual that day. I was thankful to be there... That is, unil we walked through a field of sheep, our group walking through at different paces. My friend Lottie and I were the first to walk through along with the two Sarah's in our group, and this one sheep comes up to us. We walked away from it and it followed us and it rammed its head into my leg twice! That was the funniest day I'd had in years.
