Camp is sweeeet.

Tomorrow night we are going to Victoria!! I'm so excited about this as i don't feel like I've seen the 'real' Canada yet. The scenery at camp is very similar to N.Z, in fact, if it wasn't for the different accents and the fact that it took 34 hours to get here I would still think I'm in N.Z! Camp is really cool. Been getting to know a lot of the other staff, and I feel like I've been here for months already. The days are action packed, which makes then feel like about three days long instead of one! Yesterday I was down at the water front, being dragged on giant inflatables by a speed boat. And today got trained on archery/general sports around camp. I'm really looking forward to working on the activities, and having many more fun days in the sun to go.. Today for lunch there was..... TATOR TOTS and CASIDILLAS! Amazing... although after week 10 of them maybe i won't think so? Still can't get photos on here! need o find the techno guy and find out how. Anyway I had better go to the next session for today.. but first here is a list of all the cool stuff about camp/Canada so far... Yellow school buses, sun, Q-rock (the camp radio station,) deers, giant yum ice creams, tuck, 'Popsicles', maple leaves, flag poles, driving on the WRONG side, the sparkley water at night (although i haven't seen it at its best yet..its supposed to go white and glittery when you throw something in it,) getting a tan, the trucks, everything being in french as well as english.... and now i really have to go!! Bye bye xx

34 hours?? And I thought my jet lag experience was bad?! (China is a mere 4 hours behind NZ).

Do they train you in archery so you can prevent the kids from sneaking out at night? Useful.
