We were up again at 8.30am after finally getting to sleep at about three the night before. Breakfast was a slow fumbling affair where everyone looked less than awake and coffee was in high demand. Beach games followed after that with the day promising to be a scorcher.
It was Team Vodka against Dom, XO, and Bloody Mary - the camp had an alcoholic swing to it; ironically there was none, quite unlike last year where everyone got more than a little happy. Minesweeper was quickly followed by Guess the Celebrity, Fruit of Life, and 100 seconds. They were briefly interrupted by a messy jam war, but justice was swift, and the instigators were jammed, stripped, and thrown into the sea. I suppose the dunking was welcome though, because the jam was definitely 'going places'. Lunch was soon after, and the day had hit smelting temperatures.
The Amazing Race started at about 2.30pm, and the teams were split into a further eight. Check points were located all over the island where we had to solve puzzles and search for clues. The locations were randomly selected each time, and Vodka A proved to be slightly more fortunate than our B team. As part of A, we scooted around the island in a more or less anticlockwise direction, beating one of the teams to a checkpoint by hitchhiking on a lorry. Vodka B had to crisscross Sentosa several times, but managed to commandeer a senior and his vehicle half way through the race. Two and a half hours later, brain-drained and weary, both halves of Team Vodka finished 2nd and 3rd, pushing us into first place overall. Go Vodka!
The closing barbecue was followed by sharing the spoils of the contest amidst much Polar Bear hilarity and a surprisingly early night.
