And no easy journey it was - after a 40-minute journey on bus and by foot, the troupe eventually reached their destination. Oh joy it was! But, this jubilation was not long-lived...
...so near...
...and yet...
...so...
...so...

Standing amidst hordes of weary, debilitated students (weak from hunger; dehydrated from uncontrolled salivation), the enticing array of palatable chilled delicacies at the Ben and Jerry's kiosk a mere 10 metres away was too much to bear!
