The Jungle Stream
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 33773
|
A little further on they heard the sound of running water. They eventually
came across a wide and rapidly flowing stream. The water perfectly clear,
with the stream itself not deep. So they could try and clean their clothes
in it, but was bathing was out of the question. They also entertained the
idea of trying to follow it to its outlet, which they thought could either
be a lake or the ocean itself. If it was the former it would be idea for
bathing. It would mean going back on theirselves,
however, as it seemed to be flowing in more-or-less the opposite direction
to the one in which they had travelled. First things first, they decided to try and clean their clothing which was attracting a large number of flies. So they stripped, no longer embarrassed at each others nakedness. They started to scrub their clothing, occasionally splashing one another with water. This eventually ended up in a fully-fledged splashing war, with them both eventually ending up sitting in the stream and laughing at one another. Meanwhile, unheeded by either of them, their clothing was being carried away by the current. It was Astra that finally noticed. "Hey!" she shouted in alarm. "Our clothes have disappeared!"
