First Day Of The Last Week

The first day consisted of the usual; awkward name games, the laying down of rules, picking bunks [an ever important choice], introductions [performed with enthusiasm and humor, despite this being the fifth repetition], the nervous energy of the first comers, etc. All of this proceeded with a certain care-free summer time feel; probably do to the amazing cooking and beautiful scenery. Take the cabin rules for example; though they were stern they allowed for the excitement of a new environment for the campers, especially me.

WEHGC Rules Jeopardy

I must say that though learning the rules was tolerable  [as far as rules go], the swimming test was my best experience so far.  The water was chilly but I loved observing the occasional fishy after the evaluation, which I think I did pretty well on. I hope to continue this positive pattern and I don't think that'll be too difficult in this setting.

Swimming test + cold water = FUN
