Re-cap Day 12 - Wednesday 7th August

After 12 Days, and 11 nights our time at the Haarlem Jamborette would now be measured in hours
We were booked on the Bus to Schiphol , leaving at 11:30am, so the main task was to clear the site
 Most of the tents had been taken down the previous day, so the main task was to get it all back in the van


Soon it was time for our Russian friends to say goodbye



not long after that the Site,Haarlem Jamborette, Subcamp Rusty Railrood, sites A9+A10 were mostly clear, and unexpectedly we were running ahead of Schedule a little
With a litte bit of time to spare,  I mentioned that there could be a chance that a few things might still be open in the main arean/jambo boulevard area, and after walking over there, the Tuck shop and a few other bits were still functioning - selling off some remains


Soon  after that it was time to Leave, and for one last time exit via Gate C, to the Coach/bus pick up/drop off point, all that was left of our campsite, was bare ground and a few patches where the tents/table etc had stood for the last 11 nights (plus Daves bags - they all made it back to the UK )

 And then it was time to go
Check in at Schiphol

Quick video from Haarelm Jamborette: Last day on site




And with that, thats the end of the end of day re-caps from the 2019 Haarlem Jamborette.
 The original intention was to do these on site, at the end of each day, during the day at the Haarlem Jamborette, when I had the chance  Drafts were created, with a few photos/videos loaded, with the intention of fleshing them out at the end of the day and then posting them.
 The reality was that most of the drafts were created, however the end of day tidying up, and sorting out of the blog drafts  didnt quite work, as the need to sleep won out.
 Hence the post camp updates.

Theres still a little bit more to come, so keep an eye on this blog. ( another post tomorow) But for now its time to go back down the Scout hut, to continue clearing up the debris from the camp, the HQ currently looks like this ( as of 21st August 2019)
