They did it!!!!!!

THEY DID IT!!!!!!!

And within the hundred hour deadline (by the skin of their teeth might i just add)

The team are absolutely and utterly ecstatic and Charlie and Sophie are feeding some very hungry boys now! It was a nail baiting finish and the team started the bay crossing with 3 other teams, including a race veteran and they put in a super human effort to paddle across the bay to victory, with Charlie, Sophie and lots of other supporters screaming their hearts out from the shore.

More details and a full update later but CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! And on behalf of the Camels thank you so so much everyone for your support, messages and thoughts, it made a HUGE difference.

Time for lots and lots of bubbles!!!! (and perhaps some sleep, a shower and a huge amount of food!
