On Christmas morning I had a breakfast of banana pancakes and made some skype calls, before heading out.
Christmas day was spent at Joe’s house, who hosted our
volunteer Christmas party. We had a huge amount of food for the BBQ, and some
great contributions of salads, breads, rice dishes and cheese from everyone.
My first course was half a homemade burger with loads of
salad and cheese – not a full burger as I knew how much food was to follow and
I was trying to eat tactically! Next was red snapper, followed by grilled
chicken – marinated in Joe’s yoghurt marinade – followed by some delicious
lamb, followed by barbequed prawns, then barbequed pork… all interspersed with
cheese and crisps and washed down with Julbrew. It was amazing – a full day of
eating/constant grazing!

We did a secret santa (I received some candles, a very
useful present here) and relaxed at Joe’s all day. People came and went, but
most volunteers were there and it was really nice to have everyone together –
plus a few extra friends and partners along the way.
