Summer Camp Ardèche, France

Amazing day in the Ardeche!

Today we woke up to a rainy and cloudy Ardeche, but nothing was going to stop us from having fun and enjoying ourselves as much as possible! After a delicious breakfast, which included freshly made croissants, the campers headed off to their different activities.

The French Magpies spent the morning improving their French skills: reading, listening, speaking; and let???s not forget playing some language related games. The Goats spent the day on the river, learning basic river skills and morphology while enjoying the fun rapids. The Toads started their day hiking to the top of the bluff overlooking camp through Le Bois des Egaux, after having painted a beautiful flag which they later proudly planted. In the afternoon they participated in different choice activities such as archery, baking, badminton and circus skills.

After eating a wonderful and healthy dinner, the campers prepared themselves for tent inspection. Today???s theme was superheroes! The field ran abound with campers wearing capes, hats and flying broomsticks. We all then headed down to the meadow to play Canoe Commando, our most popular evening activity yet. This game involves tactics, teamwork and a whole lot of energy!

Today was an amazingly exciting day that we all truly felt. We cannot wait for tomorrow and all the adventures to come!

Phrase of the day: And all of a sudden I was like??? weoooooaaaaaaahhhhh! Sweet dude!
