With a wide variation in preferences for the day, the team split off into smaller groups to pursue their preferred activities. The International golf challenge took place between a team from Ireland (DC and Gary) against a […] Whilst the majority of the team managed a bit of a lie in after yesterday’s epic day of travel, the previously nominated ‘Bus Captains’ had to meet at 9 a.m. to collect the rental cars.
