Common misconception: retreat over the weekend was a holiday... noooooooooo...
I mean, it was good and fun and all, but it was quite a working weekend - it wasn't just the resies and staff that went up, but for the 10 x Urban Seeders, there were also about 15-20 transitory people (homeless, unemployed, recovering drug users, etc), which was the whole point of the retreat, to give people opportunities that they might not normally have.
Sleeping in a cabin with two loud snorers and a sleep-talker, playing ping pong, going on long walks with magnificent views, seeing the new growth over the fireburnt forests, learning that to deal with an epileptic case is to sing and play guitar for them in the shower, learning how responsive the police in the region are to calls, sharing an aussie bbq with english girls and driving the four hours home, half asleep...
I think that just about sums it up... will get photos up when I get them off my cam...

I still reckon a certain person in our cabin was faking snoring.
hmmm, was Christop the sleep talker???
No. Because I didn't sleep until at least 4am, and dby that staghe Nathan had gone outside to sleep. It was probably Jono.
