Summer Camp Ardèche, France
Friday 22nd - Avignon trip, mall & movies!
BOOM!!!
The sound of thunder through the night, especially around 3 AM, was incredibly loud; and today the campers woke to grey skies and forecasts of more thunderstorms. Fuses in the main building had blown, the phone line was down, and it was cold! The plan was to go to splashowld and the mall in Avignon, and as the bus was already booked, we crossed our fingers and hopped on.
At the mall, the campers had 2 hours of free time to wander about and purchase whatever they liked - mainly sugary treats, caps, and iphone covers - wow! The campers were genuinely excited about being back in the middle of civilization and with WiFi to check their snapchats, although counsellors were less enthused! At about noon we called Splashworld and were told that unfortunately, due to forecast thunderstorms, they wouldn't be open in the afternoon. No worries - a quick turnaround to the mall to the cinema, where we all sat down to see Ice Age 5!
After the movie all the campers boarded the bus again to get back to the campsite in time for apres. Dinner was pizza, which we had ordered the day before from the local pizziera - and was delicious!
After dinner everybody needed to burn off some energy, and so headed out onto the field for games - Piggy Up Piggy Down, Ninja, and Bullrush! It was all very exciting and exhausting, and now the campers are heading to bed for a big day tomorrow - ropes course and beach party. Yeah!!
