e x c u r s i o n s (19 points)




Taking an adventure doesn't mean it cannot involve sitting down and eating. But why not do it outside, in the open air, with a group of  friends, someone special, or your family? Use it as a time to wear something whimsical. This dress from H&M's new Conscious Collection is the perfect pick for your afternoon outing, and flats, like these from J.Crew, will give you a little support if you need to find a quiet spot farther up the hill. Make sure you throw a sweater in your basket so you can cover your shoulders later into the day. The key to a successful picnic is having the right materials: a thick (ideally waterproof) blanket like this one from L.L. Bean, a heavy duty basket, and something to keep the beverages cold all day long. This colorful hot pink tube holds up to 6 beverages, and also comes in a larger bottle sized option (for your favorite bottle of Champagne?) Find this at Marley Lilly. Keep yourself busy with a book, or a game. Travel Scrabble is the PERFECT thing to pick up during a lazy Saturday in the sun. Play on teams and get the whole group involved, or against a friend, but it will keep you busy for hours.
