I had a great 10 days at camp. Camp started on the 31st of July, which was a Sunday. On day 2 I went on an overnight camping trip where we canoed through the locks. I swam in a lock and touched the moss on the side. I slept in a sleeping bag in a tent.

When I got back to Camp Merrywood I joined the Weather Network Club where I made windmills. Later we did a Lady Gaga show where we dressed up as monsters. My cabin, Moose cabin, did one of her songs, “Poker Face.”

Jon the weatherman and his weather chart. Alas, no pictures of Gaga night.
At Life Skills I did some sand art. I glued coloured sand onto paper. Later that week I had Spa Day. I got a hand massage and had nail polish put on! One day I went swimming in the swimming pool.

On day 9 we had a talent show. Some people danced and other people sang. I sang the “Repeat After Me” song from Sid The Science Kid.

Jon informs us that this picture is from their Quidditch game. Yes, apparently they had broomsticks.
On the last evening we had a banquet dinner. I ate roast beef and potatoes. Afterward we watched a slideshow and then danced. The next morning Daddy came to pick me up. My 10 days at Camp were fun!

This was great – I wish I’d been there instead of working three deadlines!

I am envious of all the swimming, Jon! Glad you had a wonderful time at camp, wish we could have traded places! Big hug, Cica.
