Bring stuff to do on the ride down – it is long.  Bring tapes or a CD player and CDs if you have them.

REMEMBER:  We are going down south – it will be warmed but it is also very damp where we are going – do not bring anything you will miss if ruined, and do not bring anything especially valuable as the campsite is not watched during the day.
