Formation Willo

Two adults, Four children, umpteen bags & personal items, you should have seen us getting through customs! Last week we joked about the need to walk in Willo Formation while we were away. In fun we devised 6 Willo Formations each with its own call sign and practiced them at home:

Willo 1 – single file;
Willo 2 – two abreast in three pairs each with a designated “buddy”;
Willo 3 – three abreast in two rows (like on the plane over here);
Willo 4 – arrow head one, then two behind, then three abreast in the rear;
Willo 5 – one adult in front and one at rear with two rows of two in the middle;
Willo 6 – 6 abreast strolling arm in arm – quite a formidable sight this one!!

What began in fun became necessary the moment we walked into Sydney airport – those rope lines are very hard to negotiate in Willo 6, not to mention the x-ray machine and the automatic doors! Willo 1, 2 & 5 have all become immediately useful, praise God we practiced.
