Friday 26^th July

Our exchange this year started with the arrival of the German leaders and some German members at the tent camp. They prepared the area for the Welshies. Because of the flights delay, they arrived later as planned. The small German group welcomed the Welshies with our typical “Fluffy sheep”-song. After we ate Hotdogs, we went to bed tired.
