The first night there we had a small fire, I made some really bad pasta with some really cheap and disgusting sauce, I ate it all as I was hungry but I would never eat it again by choice and I have another pack of it so am going to have to bite the bullet one day. It was very relaxing sitting by the fire, with a full belly and looking up at an exceptionally clear sky with bright stars. The area we were was full of different observatories to watch the stars, some did tours others were for scientific purposes only, after all the sky here is supposed to be some of the clearest skies in the world. I was tired and decided to have an early night, I was very excited about sleeping, unfortunately I didn't realise how bad the ground was yet and I didn't have a mat or anything to sleep on, just the ground, my tent and ,my sleeping bag then me. Not nice at all, possibly the most uncomfortable I have been in my entire life, or at least from what I can remember. I think I may have only got about two or three hours sleep altogether, I was rolling around trying to find the most comfortable position, and did this all night long, not just until I fell asleep. During the day I had stumbled upon some wild peppermint, that would make a great tea so I took some, it smelled lovely, really fresh and did indeed make a wonderful tea.
