Read about the people here!
The Cambridge Invasion
Arrh! People flew in from all corners of the world in the beginning of the Easter week and the flat on Sterne Close slowly filled up with smelly Easter Reunion participants. Luckily, the German cold took its toll on some people and pacified most of them for a couple of days.
 Crowded house rules! |
 Shopping on a large scale |
The first couple of days involved catching up, planning meals, getting the rental cars, doing the shopping and accommodating 16 people + coping with Erik the Red - the cat whom most people were allergic to in AJ and Tina's one-bedroom flat.
 How about a 400 pound shop? |
 Packing up the cars early Friday morning - and waking up the whole neighbourhood. |
 Then, after 4 hours, arriving at Ffridd Farm! |
 Ffridd Farm - so wonderfully old, crusty and beautiful. |
 And here we are, all orking together outside our hang-out - a some 700-year old stone barn in the Welsh hills. |
 The Orks have put up their banner in the barn! |
 Then we invaded Harlech Castle in the village |
 Harlech castle. |
 Harlech castle and more Orks |
 AJ and Tina just checking the limits |
 Other people are checking the limits of gravity at Harlech Beach |
 ... and so is Craig later that evening with the game "grab the lighter with your teeth from the top of a chair" |
 Saturday morning, the weather is looking promising for day tramp to Snowdon Peak |
 ...yeh, well, shame about the company... |
 Trying to find the way to Mordor |
 Hey, whose foggy fart was that?! |
 Jenn exploring cliff tops (or looking for a place to pee?) |
 Hanging out in the Welsh scenery |
 Tino looking fit |
 Slate things |
 Snow! |
 Little Ork on Big Ork |
 It is freezing cold at the top despite the 700+ people to heat the place up |
 Yet, spot the Kiwi enjoying his lunch in shorts and T-shirt... |
 The Welsh Garden Zwerg Collection (Garden Gnomes) |
 ...and now also, reclining Garden Zwerge (Garden Gnomes) |
 German getting naked alert! |
 Easter Bunnies! |
 Tramping fashion 2004 (and 1999, and 2000, and 2001, and 2002, and 2003) |
 Not at all afraid of heights, in fact, the only one who wasn't ...hrm hrm... |
 Thank God we were all rescued by a gorilla in the mist |
 Lunch-bunch keeping warm at the yop - notice Snowdon Peak under the people in the background |
 Diana and Deike, two frozen Germans |
 We are here! |
 So are we! (and 700 others!) |
 New Zealand, Denmark, India having lunch on Snowdon |
 The clouds cleared somewhat and we had a view of the lake - and the rest of the chocolate! |
 Tina was delighted as she could tell her horrible jokes to new members of the group (again and again and again) |
 Fantastic view over the lake, obstructed by Sanu and AJ |
 More Garden Zwerg landscape |
 US and Sweden united |
 Certainly warming up now as we all squeeze together in front of the pub's fireplace |
 At the pub, all tired and and happy |
 Welcome to Cave Dave's animated story time with map, blondie and everything |
