Day 8

Woke up.  Decided to use the life raft to boat around the lake till I reach the river.  I start tumbling down the river only just keeping the raft afloat.  Then I come up to a split in the river, one of the ways looks calm and the other way the currents look very strong.  I try going down the calm way but get pulled in by the other.  I only manage to stop one kilometre downriver.  I decide it’s been a long day so I set up camp.  I spear a big trout from the river, cook it over a fire, it was extremely good, and I go to sleep dreaming of home.
