Not sure if I want to join yet, so much IRL that happens, but if I get some time then maybe.

Good news everyone!

We’ll get this challenge started on Friday 4th July. The first task will be posted at ~13:00 GMT (whenever I get my lunch-break)

[center]Task 1 - Holiday!

[/center]

It’s July and that means it’s vacation time! This week your task is to go on a dream holiday: Relax on a beach, enjoy the sun, sea and sand. Will you build a sand castle or just lounge in the shade of a palm tree? Beach vacations not your thing? Fine, maybe you’ll enjoy a city break in another country and visit a famous tourist attraction or one of the many wonders of the world. Dream vacations need no money, no reservations, no plane tickets… so where do you want to go? What do you want to see?

This is an intentionally broad theme to get started, so you can incubate something personal to you. Chill out, enjoy yourselves, let’s get some points on the score board. The important thing here is being a tourist. As long as you’re feeling that vacation vibe or doing tourist type things like photographing everything, trying to read foreign maps, stopping for ice cream every five minutes, etc, it will count.

Don’t forget to send me a postcard!

Should be tricky, I don’t tend to relax in my dreams at all, they are always action-packed (for better or worse) :tongue:

Skydive over the nazca lines? Base jump off the Eiffel tower? Adventure holidays are fine too, you don’t have to sit around on a beach! :smile:

Oh that’s a relief! :happy: Rarely dream about relaxing on a beach. I’ll try to incubate sky diving :content:

Week 1

SPOILER - Click to view

5th of July, 2 NDs, no holiday dreams yet D: .

Cheers everyone. You can post here or just tag the dreams in your journal, either is fine. :cool:

@James_UK2008 - The challenge started 13:00 (1pm) on the 4th. Looks like the dreams on the 4th were from the morning before that so I’m not going to include them in the scores, unless that was an afternoon nap?

@En’enra - Grats, vacation already, nice work!

Apologies. I saw that the challenge started on the 4th July so I made the assumption of including July 4ths ND. (Timezone differences might have contributed as well) :razz:

2 Vacation ND’s, and some fragments after repetitive FA’s. I could have sworn I wrote my dreams down 4 times this morning! I believe all the fragments I recall after the FA’s are part of the same dream, so I count them as 1 single fragment.

No holidays … I was back at school! :thud:

2 dreams

  1. Loco Parentis
  2. The Way

2 more ND’s last night, nothing special.


[edit]Monday the 7th, cat burst into bedroom at 5am meowing “SUN’S UP, I’M UP!” Recall lost due to cat on head syndrome. Only some fragments about water skiing through the internet survived, will count as 1 Fragment.

3 dreams… no holidays.

‘Healthy’ Competition.
The Unseen.
Sleepover.

:rofl: shame I didn’t get a holiday vibe from the Unseen dream. On writing it up, it reminded me of the horror films when someone is on holiday and enters the village pub. :tongue:

1 ND last night. Grew black feathered angel wings and flew around. :dingy:

Will type it up when I get out of work tonight.

[edit]Dream typed, link added.

[edit] Wednesday the 9th 1 ND. No vacation, we didn’t quite get to the honeymoon. :tongue:

[edit] Thursday the 10th 1 ND. No vacation, just motorcycle riding out the end of the world.
