Shots from a car show the scenic surrounding countryside. They arrive at their destination of Burnsall Hall in which they will stay for the duration of their trip. After unpacking, they set off into the countryside where they picnic by a river. They are accompanied by both Brown Owl and some Girl Guides that have joined the trip. Later the girls eat dinner on trestle tables that have been set up in the hall.
