Day one…

I arrived at Benken just after four o’clock after a nice shower (rain that is) and tried to find my way to the check-in. Fortunate as I am a scout driving around some stuff gave me a lift to the check-in so I did no need to carry all my stuff about one and a half kilometer through Benken. Thanks to him again.

As mentioned earlier on, it was not really much sunshine that day and I managed to checkin and to get to my camping area dry. I helped a friend to pitch up his rather large tent when it just startet to rain again. so I tried to find the person in charge of me and to get hold of some information and a place to help.

After the rain stopped again (yes, it was like an on and off switch) I was finally able to pitch up my own tent. I had a look over the Village Globale, which already looked very good ad went back to whatever work was left.

After supper people were invited to the welcome party in on of the staff pubs, this time the one near Benken itself, only about 15 minutes of walk away.

I went to bed rather early as I was supposed to get up at about 5 am to help cleaning the toilets (the plastic boxes called toitoi), but this is another story…
