Quite a few 'people, consider it a holiday„ to go camping -in a crowded tent traitor or tent for a few days of the summer. Whatever you consider a good holiday there is-always the problem of , getting there on a hot summer day in a ear with or without air conilltioxiing. Travelling is no little kid's hobby. There is always some problem with how they travel. Some kids fight in the back seat all the way to their destination with their brother while others will talk all of the way. Then there are the kids who will go for ten miles An4 then...wantto stop again for something to eat or to go to the bathroom. There are lots of problems and lots of good points about going on a holiday with kids and I think Fve experienced them all. Everyone looks forward to going on their holidays with their family. Once the work is completed and, the car is picked up and ready to go, you can't help. but to wish that you were already there and'unpacking. The thought of travelling for hundreds of Miles in a car in 'the early hours of the day until dark is not appealing to anyone. Therefore it is almost neces- sary to think 'elfthings to do while travelling.

We'd act like little idiots waving at all of the drivers, making peace signs, etc. through our back windows. There are lots of games to play on the 401. Eye Spy With My Little Eye Was about the most ridiculous game we - ever attinepted because by the •time the person had guessed what the coloured object was, it was five or six miles behind them! Another we loved to play was "The -Alphabet Game." This was-great for long rides with no stops. The object of the game was to go through the whole alphabet finding words in signs that begin with an A first, then B, C etc.. Fmding words, places direct- Terry Smith, another lead- er, suggested the club go to John Juno's rabbit operation .near Clifford. and a - Bull Testing Station near Harris- ton.
