After finishing up our final preparations yesterday, we were finally ready to show off our presentation. Before giving our presentation we had one final run through to make sure we had everything covered, and knew what to say.

Cosmo and Wilfred had everything prepared and ready to go for the big presentation, and we even managed to get some stuff prepared as well.

Our presentation was first, though right before starting Cosmo and Wilfred became too nervous to present. We tried to convince Cosmo and Wilfred to talk, though they weren’t having it, so we had to read their parts for them.

All the presentations went well, with all teams delivering and exceeding what we had expected. After our presentation we sat nervously waiting to find out if we had earned our explorer belts, thankfully all teams managed to earn their explorer belts. Even Cosmo and Wilfred got theirs.

After receiving our awards we headed off to have a bbq, we were even treated to some lovely rain to remind us of home. We were joined some of the scouts we had met along our journey, and shared a really enjoyable evening together to celebrate receiving our awards and spending our last day in Rasnov.

Tomorrow we will be heading off to Bucharest, where we will get the chance to finally visit the capitol city of Romania.

Today was a very relaxing day, compared to what we have been doing for the last 10 days anway. We meet with the leaders, and made our final preparations for the presentation tomorrow, Cosmo even gave us a hand with finishing some of the slides.

We now have everything ready for our presentation tomorrow; although Cosmo and Wilfred have become very nervous of speaking in front of the leadership team, especially James.

After giving our presentation tomorrow we will have finally completed the final part of our explorer belt; it has been a long journey, with our first training event happening in February and preparations starting even earlier.

After 9 days packed full of adventure and fun, we have finally reached our final day. We started the day packing away all our kit and heading off to the bus station to catch the final bus of the expedition, taking us back to Rasnov.

As soon as we arrived back in Rasnov we met up with Eddie, who was bursting with excitement in anticipation of visiting the dino park. It was only a short walk and trip on the vehicular to the dino park, though Eddie couldn’t hold in his excitement any longer and Cosmo and Wilfred weren’t faring much better.

Once we finally arrived the dino park proved even more exciting than we had initially thought. Cosmo, Wilfred and Eddie all bursting with excitement sprinted into the dino park leaving us to catch up with them.

They all really enjoyed the dino park; though Eddie definitely enjoyed it more than anyone else, even more than most of the kids visiting the park.

We then headed off to the Rasnov citadel, where Cosmo & Wilfred had a great time.

This brings us to the end of our explorer belt. We have had the journey of a lifetime, taking us all over Romania. This experience is one that will last a lifetime, and we can only encourage more people to take part in the future.

We now have a few days to prepare our presentation, which could possibly be presented to the ambassador.
