Camp Cavehill
When we first entered Camp Cavehill I felt a rush of excitement run through me. We were finally there; after that long boring bus ride. I couldn’t wait to get outside into the cool fresh air. When I first saw the lake I was amazed too see how beautiful it was. Then when I entered my cabin I felt so lucky to have the ensuite, till we found the dead frog. It was gross! Then we did compass work. I didn’t enjoy it much but it was fun to do it with a friend. I really enjoyed the breaks because we could sit with our friends or play table tennis. I really enjoyed the rope course because it was fun to watch Samantha do something over and over again, until she finally got it. I also liked it when we had to work as a team. When I had dinner that night I was surprised because the food didn’t taste as bad as I thought it would, but it didn’t taste as good as home. When we did archery the next day I was annoyed because I kept missing the target but I got better. Then we did bike riding with Miss Jackson, that was fun but I hated my bike because it felt like it was going to fall apart. When we did canoeing at fist I was scared about falling in but we got the hang of it the only bad part after that was when we couldn’t stop the canoe and went straight into the reeds, because we freaked out! I enjoyed taking photos because it gave me time to enjoy the scenery and have a look around the places I haven’t been to yet. Then we did our final activity the map reading, I enjoyed that because I saw an echidna but I didn’t enjoy getting my foot stuck in mud. That night I had a lot of fun doing the camp act, and couldn’t stop laughing. The next day I had a lot of fun working as a team and making huts. When it was time to leave I was a bit sad but I knew that we had to go home soon. I had a lot of fun and I really enjoyed going to Camp Cavehill and would go back again.
