Summer Camp Ardèche, France
Magic Monday
Another great day here at the Ardeche as we prepare for our major excursion tomorrow - the Grand Descent!
After getting up and having breakfast, campers were treated to a special version of Tent Inspection with the Kitchen Babes, which involved a guitar accompaniment from pebble and tambourine/keyboard solos from the Kitchen Babes (Dodo and Coco) themselves. After tent inspection, the French language students went to their french lessons while the River Adventure crew had options of football, volleyball, archery, and arts & crafts. The arts and crafts department were making rings and bracelets, while the archers were aiming for balloons filled with paint on a canvas!
Everybody reconvened for lunch, and then went to afternoon activities. The French students got to do the Indy Parc Ropes course, which the others had done earlier, and the River adventure team got to choose between a second round of ropes course or an afternoon on the river, jumping off ropes and ropeswings! Both parties had lovely afternoons, with the River team jumping off plenty of rocks, chilling in the river, and getting icecream and chips to finish it off :)
Now everybody's getting ready for dinner, and in the evening we have Grand Descent Prep. Tomorrow we set off at 9 AM for our two day descent! Naturally, I won't be able to provide updates until Wednesday night, but stay posted until then! Weather looks good so far and everyone is very excited!
