We are returning to Matainui to camp for two weeks. We shall travel by sea plane and you may take what you are wearing and a backpack with ten other items in it. Your lunch for the first day will not count as an item. Think about your list and pack for any potential survival situations. You may cooperatively pack to make sure you get more items amongst your group.
Weather will be similar to what we are experiencing in Hamilton at present, but possibly colder and wetter.
Island inhabitants, flora and fauna will be only as you would have found 1500 years ago, before the arrival of humans. Everything you say you want to do on the island will have to be something you can actually do with the equipment you have.
No other adults will be with us. We will travel from Kawhia Harbour in a plane like the one pictured above.
All skills and knowledge you wish make use of on the island will must be posted on your own "Return To Matainui" blog. Show images and descriptions of equipment, etc.
Daily diary entries of your adventures and experiences need to be posted, free of errors.
Good luck!

Great comments everyone - check your spelling and punctuation, Mousewheel. Your idea about sleeping up a large tree could be useful if we discover dangerous ground critters...
Hey, I have got all my items and most of them have images to match.
Check out my blog: Lost In Matainui

P.S. you made a spelling mistake on the blue link (To Ten Survival Tools instead of Top Ten Survival Tools)
CompDude - there's nothing on your new blog so don't direct people there until there is.
Glad your keen so get some writing published :-) I'm looking forward to reading your brilliant story.
Remember it doesn't have to be ultra perfect the first time because we can edit it and make changes in our writers community.
Cool! I am so excited!! This will be a good topic to learn about survival skills.
I've created a new blog and have posted on it.
