Vacation 2004: Settling between two pines

After we landed on the island, we put our tent between two pines on a small hill, unlike many other participants of the Festival, who put their tents lower, in the woods. We were told that there are few mosqitos on the island, but we ensured ourselves with the place that was most secure in this aspect. From the other side, as we discovered pretty soon, our tent was just on the main road between major sites. When the signal man was running along the main road beating into the gong, calling people to wake up, or to eat or to attend meetings, we were heavily puniched by the sound of the gong each time! However, we were free of frogs in the tent if we forgot to lock it, unlike those who lived lower in the woods :)




One big thing we also noticed is that our tent is so ridiculously small for two with luggage!
