Monday
1st August
At
last I've got more than 5 minutes at the computer so i
will try my best to update you on the last 6 days! So
last Tuesday evening was the usual last night camp fire
and then the shack party.
Lots
more chocolate cake. Wednesday was a usual morning with
swim lessons etc and then the kids went home in the afternoon.
We
cleaned up camp and then had a staff ice cream party.
meanwhile outside it was extremely heavy rain, and we
were all packing up to leave for the 3 days off! I got
soaked going to my cabin but managed to get everything
and we left camp at about 8.30.
Thursday
was a fab day, all 4 of us plus ruckus's mum and dad went
in their 5 seater car to Boston for the day. so the 4
of us were squished in the back but it wasn't too bad
as its a typical big American off roader car so big enough!!
We
went to quincy market and Fenuil hall. we did lots of
shopping. we also went to the Boston museum of science
and while there saw a film on coral reefs in teh imax
cinema. it was cool.
Then
we went to Harvard university, and i got a hoody there!!
And we eventually got home! Friday we went to this hot
dog place that does huge hot doges. then to EMS which
is a camping/outdoor sports shop. i got some new trainers
in the sail and a few other bits. camel bought lots of
kyakyign stuff and ikea got some more running clothes.
Yesterday
was incoming day. as usual nothing interesting. i was
car parking and then swim testing. We watched the second
half of our film (Happy Campers) with the program staff
in the evening.
Today
i had fun. i went to the beach with the Surf camp kids
so I had a go too! I kept falling off though! I don't
think I'm a surfer dude! And i spent this afternoon doing
swim lessons etc.
Anyway
i now need to drag my sleeping bag to sunset as I'm staying
there tonight because its flash's night off so i have
to be here replacement for the night! Saturday 6th August
Somewhere in Massachussettes. We had a fab day, now i
want to go somewhere with bigger rapids thought.
I
ordered a picture from the ones they took of us. I didn't
fall out...only when we jumped out to have a swim...and
the water was freezing!
