Alexander At Camp!!




We were arrivng at camp and i was feeling exited to what awaited me. I Started to feel a little home sick but then relieved from not getting called 1,000 times for fixing things. the first activity we did was the fun and fitness trail where we had to get down and dirty. I Found this activity annoying, tiring and a little fun but not fun,fun. For the next 2 and a half days we did rotations of diffrent activitys. The 1st actual activity we did archery. i found it ok and also funny. Someone got the arrow on a plastic roof. i did really bad the arrow was like 5mm infront of me hahaha. We did 1 more activity which i cant think of but i was soo afraid of the scarebear (i know what a scardy your probably thinking...) and abseiling i thought i was going to be sick if i went on it. The 2nd day we had bacon & eggs or just some jam spreads then off we went to the initiatives course which i found annoying and freaky. The 1st stage WE HAD TO STAND ON A GUYS BACK!!! and getting carried out without touching the wood or the ropes. which would be really hard to do. Before the siren went we went up to the wall which someone else and I didnt feel comfortable doing because one we were afraid and two the siren went. Then dinner we had lamb roast (WHICH WAS FULL OF FAT!!!!) but what choice did i have. The last day we did the last 3 activitys: Drawbridge course, Titanic Raft and canoeing. The Drawbridge course i found hard to cross because I FELL IN and got half drenched and i was humiliated but eventually i passed it. The next activity Titanic raft i found a bit boring because it took FOREVER TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RELAY!!!!. The Last Activity we did was canoeing which i was looking forward to all camp. I Found It Fun and intresting becuase i have never been canoeing before and i wanted to go on as soon as i heard about it. While canoeing there was a game of canoe tiggy with a yellow ball but we got tug like once and also we had a few crashes but it wasnt as bad. Soon as the siren went for the last time we had to pack up but i felt seasick. The last lunch we had at rumbug we had a sausage sizzle (finally something that didnt taste prosessed) and also we had icypoles. Then we had to pack up for the long journey home. The one thing i will miss about rumbug is the canoeing, hanging our with friends and feeling freeand i was looking forward to coming home seeing my parents and brother but theres one thing i wont miss.... wanna take a guess?.... WALKING!!!!!!!! I Wish i could come back to rumbug and canoe again! ^_^
