1 frying pan
2 pots

Everyone bring their own tents. I am not sharing."
AsIs unpacks...
"I have lots of chocolate?"
Looks at PC and Ian
"Uh...I was supposed to bring other stuff too...wasn't I? Be right back!"
Let's see what I remembered....

And most important, 1 survival handbook!
"Chapter 1: Do not annoy ProfCrash" - damn this book is good [img]smile.gif[/img]
PC thinks Only chapter 1? man does he have alot of reading ahead of him...
"Oh a sleeping bag, novel idea. I think I need to get me one of those. I think I also need someone to carry my bag for me."
PC saunters off to find Raoul to carry her pack for her.
*Jace wanders in with his face painted silver and black, with pantaloons and a ruffled shirt*
ARRRRR! Where be San Diego mateys?
*the parrot on his shoulder inquires*
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

RAAAAAWK!!!
No you cannot, eat the parrot!!!
Here have a cracker.
Ah Barry Manalow, brings back memories. I had a really good time at his concert....
Her name was Lola
She was a showgirl
RAAAAAAAWK
I hear that camel smells bad, but tastes good???? Hmmmm
Nommy adds a needle and spool of thread and a cork.<po> So... I can make a compas as well as sew a hole in my pants.
Ratz! All these movie passes are for Bruce Almighty! Well, maybe the camel will eat them.
Nope, won't touch 'em.
Okay, who wants to go see Bruce Almighty one-hundred-and-seventy times? (hey, at least it isn't seventy times seven).
"Ok, got my broadsword, my shining armour, I see my squire is here. Good thing, this armour is heavy!"
"Uh, Jace, nice...uh, parrot there buddy. Uh, Polly want a cracker?"
Digs thru bag.
"I know I packed them in here somewhere. I got all the junk food ever needed..."
*Jace wipes off the face paint, breathes a heavy sigh and strips out of his pirate garb*
I think I'll hang onto the sword though. It could come in handy.
*rummages through his pack and pulls out some ArmorAll*
Will you be donning your armour now m'lady, or can I polish it up for you?
OK, weve walked about 100 yeards and have come to a gate. It is a large wooden gate with 3 knockers on it. One small, one medium and one large...Now what?
PC rushes up "Larger is better, right?"
Why is everyone giggling?
Jace, Jace, Jace...put those pirate clothes back on! There's nothing that says a squire can't be a pirate! Besides, you look pretty darn cute in that outfit. [img]wink.gif[/img]
But...uh, that parrot is all yours...
*somberly nods, then bursts out laughing*
"My sympathies, no, no, really!"

Hmmm...I guess I'm gonna have to. Seems I forgot to pack any other clothes. Wouldn't do to go wandering around in my underwear.
The parrot isn't mine. He just started following me after I put on the outfit.
Akmed, my camel driver, is of the opinion that knockers should only come in pairs and should both be large.
The VW ain't gonna fit through this gate.
NomAD LOOKS AROUND AND UP AT THE SKY.... sHEESHG.K
Nommy koks on the small kmocker and the wa.ls fall away....>
OK,Iz...its not about size here! ... onward!
Quickly gets out Nommy to english dictionary!
"Damn this thing is hard to read..."
Hands book to Jacesan, "Can you make any of this out?"
Whats a dikshuerry?
Anyway...let move out folks...Im in a snowstorm with the rest of the east northeast. Time to move onward. Lets head through that pass between those mountain peals.
Tosses book back into bag of holding...
"Oh well, we can use it to make a fire later."
Tally ho!
PC pulls out her hiking gear. "Did anyone bring the rope?"
Why do people keep snickering
"we might need it when in the mountains"
Methinks Freud would have a field day with you Miss Crash!
*Takes rope from PC* It's safer all around this way I think. *snickers*
Lead on Nommy!
Bmat checks out of the motel and drives to a motel in the next area and looks for the gang.
I'll stroll along, but my idea of camping out is a budget motel.
Nomad snickers and heads toward the large growth of trees and begins to follow a well trotten path.
It is wide enough to fit a Big Bug like yours, Iz. Almost appears as if the trees widen just enough as we go along.
"Ah Bmat, you know this group, just think what type of accomodations we have in our backpacks. Bypass the motel."
PC chases after Azziz tog et her rope back. "Hey thats mine!"
I've got a rope.
*pulls out a four-and-a-half foot rope with plastic handles on each end*
*gets a puzzled look on his face*
Why would we need to skip rope through the mountains?
OK..we have traveled a few miles and have run into this River... Any suggestions? Do camels and BUgs float?
I knew we should have called in at Lothlorien first to get some nice rope and boats, and some of those nice shiny daggers. Oh well.
Anyone bring any bridging equipment?
Bmat pulls out a machete, pulls on her work gloves, and gets ready to cut down some saplings for a bridge. Before she starts she looks around to see if anyone has other ideas.
Hmmm...Well...the river only looks to be about 2-3 feet deep. That Camel looks mighty able to traverse it. Perhaps we can take turns loading and riding? Well, Iz? Can the Camel pull the bug through the water? Anyone got any magic ?
*at that moment, a boat, not too small, not too large, slowly drifts their way; a voice can be heard from it*
"...we were sailing allooooonnnnggg.....on Moonlight Baaaaayyyy...."
*a figure steps out, sees the group and drops anchor in front of them*
Hello there! I hope you're not planning on crossing this water with your camel. The river is deeper than it looks. Might I ask where ye be goin'? P'rhaps I can be of assistance.
AsIs and Jace break ranks and rush towards the boat! "Crazya!" They both call out loudly. "Good to see you!"
AsIs taps the boat with her foot, "So this thing will, uh, hold all of us?"
"Oh, aye! Granted, it may look a little worn but it's pulled through many a scrape. And I've had it weighed down with much more than your lot. So what say ye? Can I give you all a brief respite from foot-travel?"
