A REVIEW OF
THE MURRAY RIVER HOUSEBOAT WEEKEND
|
We nearly set out with only a few crewmembers. The magnetic charm of the guys boarding the next boat next proved almost too much for our hormonally challenged travellers. However, once we started moving, hi-fi speakers were installed on the top deck and the party began. Unfortunately, I really didn't pay too much attention to where I was going. So, yes, I rammed the Endeavour into the riverbank. Umm...well, let's not dwell on that, shall we? Instead, let's divert our attention to the football team that we encountered on the riverbank. If only they'd known about us, I wonder if they still would have astounded us with their urge to flash? People partied hard on the first night, especially James and Paul. Another couple braved the bush to search for their beloved footballers. Saturday was a quieter affair. As we motored downstream, I mostly stayed on the upper deck, snoozing, chatting away, reading my book or taking in the passing scenery. When we finally moored, I heard a splash from the boat's bow. I turned to see Ian in the water waving his arms about, urging others to join him for a swim. We celebrated Saturday evening with a try-to-be-formal cocktail party. We were treated to a delicious assortment of finger foods and Jamie and Josh entertained us with their hilarious impromptu Abba impersonations. The fun continued all weekend...and thankfully, no one played Celine Dion! I loved this weekend away. It was great to unwind, have fun and be silly together. I can't wait for our next adventure.
