Reina - Log 9 "PLEASE? NO MORE BANANAS!"



“Ahoy men! Did you all have your bananas today? Jeroen, Jack, Rory did you eat a banana? Harry, Jarrod, Arie! Please take a banana otherwise I have to throw them in the rubbish bin!” Chef Floss encourages the crew to eat bananas. As many other competitors of the ARC she bought a lot of fresh green bananas. Enough for one month and by the look of their green colour you might believe they would at least stay good a fortnight. Well, they don’t.

After two days we left Gran Canaria the bananas were yellow. Two days later they got freckles and it took no more than another day they became totally brown. And soft.

We have eaten them for breakfast in our yoghurt. For lunch in a fruit bowl and after dinner as desert. Baked with ice cream. Now everybody is totally finished with bananas. The rest of them are turning black. They certainly will end in the rubbish bin.
