Session 1 Day 6




Well I live in the mountains
And I sleep beneath the rocks
The only thing that makes me happy
IS my favorite pair of socks
Because they smell like COCONUTS,
THEY SMELL LIKE COCONUTS,
THEY SMELL LIKE
CO-CO-NUTS

Well, I went to Seattle
To become a rock star
But I didn't really make it
No I didn't get very far
So I had to sleep in my car
And it SMELLS LIKE COCONUTS,
IT SMELLS LIKE COCONUTS
IT SMELLS LIKE CO-CO-NUTS

Well my car caught on fire
Caused by a wire
It burnt down to the ground
All that's left was a tire
So I took a magic carpet
And I flew it to the beach
And I landed in some lotion
And it smelled like a PEACH?!
A PEACH!
NO!
IT SMELLED LIKE COCONUTS
IT SMELLED LIKE COCONUTS
IT SMELLED LIKE COCONUTS
IT SMELLED LIKE CO-CO-NUUUTS

Now that you all just sang that song to yourselves, it was almost like you were here at lunch! Today's lunch was a singing lunch! For those of you who haven't been to camp before, what this means is singing is always happening... Not just any singing but Disney songs, Camp Songs, and other random songs. And the best one from today was THE COCONUT SONG!

We also had a challenge at breakfast to see if Calypso (the camp Artist) could go through lunch without smiling... Well, she did pretty well, until the Sherwood boys made her smile. So, she walked up and down the Lodge like a chicken, followed by Ukulele dressing up in a dress.

The Teen Leads just came back from an amazing two night overnight too!

On the list right now, we are in the middle of Round Robins: free choice activity periods. This week, the activities are Bouldering Wall, Archery, Ocean Dipping, Self Portraits, and Slip N Slide.

We can't believe today is the last full day of the Session 1! We were having so much fun, we didn't even notice the days fly by. Tonight's campfire is run by the Teen Leads, I can't wait!

Quote:
Bumble's Cabin did a random Wiggle Walk (absolute amazing activity that can't be described in words, similar to scavenger hunt, but way more awesome).

Bumble asked her cabin to find something that reminded them of camp. Campers came out with pants on their heads, shorts, wacky hair, etc. When Bumble asked why it reminded them of camp, camper responds, "Because camp is where you can be yourself and unique. You can even wear shorts and be different too, and no one will think you are weird."
